Dance in Jerusalem

Jerusalem, Israel

This unique program combines artistic training in dance skills and technique with academic exposure to Israel's challenging social, historical and cultural environment. Students can focus on artistic and technical training in the disciplines of Classical Ballet, Contemporary Dance Choreography, Repertoire and Improvisation.

The program is offered through a joint initiative of the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance and Hebrew University’s International School. In addition to dance training, students can take courses in Hebrew language, as well as learn about Israel and the Middle East through classes and field trips.

Cost to attend:

Reed College charges the same tuition fees for a semester or year off-campus as for a semester or year spent on campus, plus the off-campus program's actual room and board fees. Students are encouraged to choose programs based on their academic, rather than financial needs, to reflect Reed College's belief that all students regardless of financial circumstances should have the opportunity to study abroad.

Financial aid continues for eligible students during their participation in an off-campus program. Students should discuss how other outside aid may impact their existing aid package with the Financial Aid Office. More details are available here.
