Special Programs

The mechina is a one-year program designed for newcomers and foreign students, high school graduates, who are not eligible for direct registration to Tel Aviv University.

Goals of the Mechina

• To bridge the gap between overseas and Israeli high schools study curricula.
• To familiarize students with Hebrew, the teaching language of the University.
• To provide intensive preparation for academic studies.
• To provide basic knowledge of Israel and Jewish History.
• To acquaint students with study tracks at the University.
• To provide accreditation that will enable students to pursue degree programs at the university. 

Tel-Aviv University doesn't offer a Mechina program. The University accepts Mechina programs from Bar-Ilan University, Hebrew University or Technion.
