The Harkham Scholarship

The Harkham Scholarship enables students with financial need to participate in an invaluable educational experience at the Mayanot Institute of Jewish Studies.

The Scholarships were established by Mr. Uri Harkham of Los Angeles, who out of a desire to inform the next generation of Jewish community leaders, dedicated resources to the continuation of their Jewish education at Mayanot. These students from around the world are given the opportunity to explore their religion, their people and their history.

Grants are administered through the Mayanot Institute of Jewish Studies, which selects applicants based on merits of academic excellence, life achievements and financial need in order to ensure that the maximum number of educated, energetic and motivated Jewish youth aged 19 to 28 can benefit from this edifying exploration.

Academic scholarships are available to students interested in pursuing any of the school's courses of study, including full-time, part-time, semester, summer and winter programs.

All applications will be reviewed anonymously by the Mayanot Institute of Jewish Studies Scholarship Committee.

Completed applications must be submitted to the Scholarship Committee together with the online application form, letters of recommendation, as well as 2 photographs.
