My name is Mark S. Tenenbaum and I am a recent graduate of the University of Rhode Island (USA) in Economics (B.A) and Political Science (B.A). I am currently working as a Financial Advisor in the Rhode Island, and am exploring pursuing graduate degrees in Political Science with the end-goal of one day teaching at a University. I recently visited Israel for the first time on a Birthright, fell in love, and am interested in applying to graduate programs beginning in Spring 2020 in Israel.
If someone could take a few minutes to give me a call or shoot me an email to discuss options I would be very appreciative!
Best,
Mark S. Tenenbaum

Graduate schools options in Israel
Hello Mark,
There are a few institutions in Israel which offer an international master degree program in political sciences to international students, among them: The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, The University of Haifa, The Tel Aviv University and The IDC Hertzelia. Each institution offer different program and different scholarship so you'll have to contact them directly to find out what is it they can offer you.
In order to apply candidates must finish first an undergraduate degree in a related field like politics, government, journalism and sociology, with an average of 3.0 or more (80 or above). Students who wish to participate in a thesis track will need an average of 88 or higher (3.4). In addition, candidates who did not complete their undergraduate studies in an English speaking country must take an English proficiency test.
I've attached a link at the end of my message to an article about the different institutions, programs, admission and more.
