Practical Information:

Tuition Policy:
Tuition at EYAHT is $700 per month.

If a student should encounter significant financial difficulties, it may be possible to arrange a non interest bearing student loan for a portion of that sum. A minimum payment of $100 per month is expected throughout the period a student spends at EYAHT. Repayment of any student loan, at a rate of $100 per month, begins six months after a student finishes her studies.

Any inquiries concerning tuition should be directed to admissions@eyaht.com.

Flight Scholarship Opportunity:
Students wishing to enroll at EYAHT for a minimum of three weeks may be eligible to apply for a flight scholarship through the Jeff Seidel AW Scholarship Fund.  After submitting your application to EYAHT, you must click here to fill out a separate application if you intend to apply for this scholarship.

Living Arrangements:
Students are housed in shared-living apartments within close proximity to the school building.  Every effort is made by Rebbetzin Weinberg and Mrs Stefansky, the Aim Bayit (dorm mother), to cater to students' individual needs, to ensure that they are comfortable and feel at home during their stay at the school.

EYAHT is located in a Torah-observant community. This location enables Rebbetzin Weinberg, who lives across the street, to minimize her time away from both her family and her students. The people in the community are most honored to have EYAHT women in their midst, and students often receive invitations to their homes.

Laundry:
A coin-operated washing machine and dryer is available for the students' laundry needs.

Computer:
A computer and printer are available for students' word-processing needs.  The student computer also allows access to the EYAHT and Aish HaTorah websites. Upon arrival at the school, students may apply for an 'EYAHT' email account, through which they may send and receive emails.

Meals:
EYAHT has two kitchens (one for parve/dairy and one for meat) in which  students are free to prepare their own meals.  Basic  grocery items such as fresh fruit and vegetables, dairy products, grains,  cereals, eggs and tinned items are provided for the students' use by the school.  EYAHT also provides a hot lunch every day, courtesy of  "Chef Hershel" from Aish HaTorah.   Consideration is given to vegetarians and those with other special dietary needs.  Two supermarkets and a 'makolet' (convenience store) are within close walking distance of the school.

Smoking:
We ask that all students refrain from smoking indoors.

Attire:
There is no dress code at EYAHT. However, students are requested to show respect for the Rabbis by wearing modest attire during their specific classes.

Shabbos:
Students are encouraged to experience Shabbos in a variety of settings.
› Shabbos placements: Mrs. Stefansky can arrange for students to share an entire Shabbos or a meal with families in Jerusalem.
› Shabbatonim: Throughout the year, students are invited to participate in "Shabbatonim" at EYAHT or in various communities in Israel. EYAHT's Shabbatonim give students the opportunity to be together for an entire Shabbos and to become acquainted with other communities. Students share Divrei Torah (short speeches about Torah subjects) and enjoy singing traditional Shabbos songs. Rebbetzin Weinberg often joins the students at Shabbatonim.

Holiday Programs, Special Events and Presentations:
EYAHT presents Chanukah and Purim programs to the women of Jerusalem. These programs offer a forum for women at EYAHT to display their talents, as they design presentations that include singing, dancing and acting. EYAHT also hosts Melava Malkas, which take place for its students from time to time on Saturday nights. In addition to refreshments, the students prepare a program in which female faculty, neighbors and friends are welcome to participate.

Safed Spiritual Retreat--Mandatory Trip: During the spring, EYAHT students go to the beautiful city of Safed for a week-long spiritual retreat. Students prepare and present their own insightful words of Torah and engage in deep, thought-provoking discussions. In addition, there are guided tours that give students the opportunity to learn about the religious history of Safed and neighboring historical sites. Mrs. Rivka Leah Wolf, the Admissions Coordinator, can provide more details concerning cost before acceptance to EYAHT.

Field trips: Overnight field trips within Israel, which include hiking and sightseeing, are arranged from time to time.

Educational trips: Trips to a variety of educational sites are arranged throughout the year. Students tour Shaare Zedek Medical Center, which is run strictly according to Jewish law, the Museum of the Diaspora, Yad VaShem Holocaust Museum, a mikvah, charity organizations, the Tomb of Rachel, the Kotel, a scribe's workshop and other places of interest.

Library:
The world of our heritage is but words away. EYAHT has a substantial library available for education and pleasure. Students are welcome to extend their horizons through the books and tapes in our extensive library.

Dating and Marriage:
Jewish tradition has a very special way of finding one's life partner, and it is important to find the right person at the right time. A single woman entering EYAHT has much to gain by taking the time to learn without focusing on dating at the outset. Rebbetzin Weinberg is available to guide each student regarding the qualities to look for in a mate and the best time to seek one.
