Eligibility is set by the published criteria/points and the budget; aid is given as scholarships or Sachal Fund loans according to the eligibility level. The form assesses family status, military/national service (combat, lone soldier), military-deposit balance, other funding and loans, vehicles, housing, parents' and spouse's income, and special circumstances (orphanhood, illness, disability, welfare recognition, debts, learning disabilities, new immigrant, end of Student Authority funding). A used military-deposit balance of ₪2,000+ or a large external scholarship (e.g., IMPACT, Mifal HaPais) significantly lowers the chance of a scholarship.

How to apply

Complete the 2026-27 scholarship form and send the documents (the documents list gives meser@ariel.ac.il). Answers arrive via the personal information system toward the end of the semester of submission. 2026-27 submission dates could not be read (the Dean of Students web pages were inaccessible).

Who can apply

RRIS aid depends on background/status in Israel and applies to international-school students. Israeli citizens resident over five years, excluding army service, apply through the Dean’s office. This is not a universal grant.

How to apply

Follow the application steps on the official page. The institution decides who receives it.

Who can apply

Granted by the Raphael Recanati International School to outstanding new applicants based on previous academic achievements; it is not possible to apply. Full-time students paying full tuition only. Can be combined with the RRIS needs-based scholarship up to an amount stated on the official page.

How to apply

No application: the RRIS admissions office notifies eligible students.

Who can apply

For Raphael Recanati International School students who demonstrate financial need. Who may apply (FAQ): RRIS students who lived abroad until the start of the academic year or have lived in Israel under five years; olim living in Israel under five years (excluding army service); continuing students who previously received an RRIS scholarship. Not eligible: students not paying full tuition, whose rent exceeds the cost of Reichman dormitories, studying beyond the three-year programme, owning real estate (car owners must check with the office), with incomplete volunteer hours, with more than three failed courses or an average below 60, or found guilty by the disciplinary committee. Israeli citizens living in Israel over five years (excluding army service) apply through the Dean of Students instead. Not a full-tuition scholarship: it supplements other grants, and applicants eligible for other grants or home-country aid are expected to pursue them first.

How to apply

MyRUNI Candidate/Student Information Station (English page) → Forms → 'RRIS Scholarship'. First-year/new students: until 16 October 2026. Continuing (2nd/3rd year) students: by 1 August 2026, after first-semester grades. Contact rris.financialaid@runi.ac.il.

Who can apply

For regular undergraduate students who meet the academic admission conditions but have proven financial hardship. Thresholds: full programme paying full tuition; no more than two cumulative failures and not repeating a year; standard years only (4 in Law and Psychology–Business, 3 elsewhere); advance payment made; a student who will not work during studies must show at least ₪24,000 net earnings in the 12 months before applying (exception for recognised disability above 20%); disciplinary convictions cancel eligibility. Total Reichman aid is capped at 50% of annual tuition, so students already receiving 50%+ cannot apply. Residents of rehabilitation neighbourhoods and development towns have a later first-year deadline.

How to apply

New students: mark interest in socio-economic aid on the registration form; forms arrive with the admission kit (due mid-June for those admitted by the end of May). Development-town/rehabilitation-neighbourhood residents admitted by mid-July may apply until the end of July; those admitted from early June to 5 August apply by 12 August (answers early September); no applications at the start of first year. Continuing students: August–September via the personal centre after a scholarship-office announcement. Answers by the start of semester B.
