Moving to Tel Aviv and studying at TAU has opened so many doors for me, and I've grown exponentially in ways I would not have if I had stayed in the USA. Living in and exploring Tel Aviv is a colorful adventure of new sights, languages, and mentalities; you never run out of possibilities here - and TAU makes sure that as a student, you take advantage of all of them. Studying archaeology here has provided me with unmatched hands-on experience and skills I can confidently take into the professional world, as well as unique social experiences and ideas I'll carry for the rest of my life.

I went to Israel because I loved the Hebrew Bible and wished to pursue further in this academic field. Tel Aviv was amazing, and I sincerely believe that words could never capture, let alone do justice to my experience. The program was academically stimulating, and professors were so open and passionate that it was difficult NOT to be captivated. I wrote a short review because I am still processing everything that has happened to me in Tel Aviv, and I suspect I will be "processing" all my life. Highly recommend this program to anyone looking for something extraordinary.

I came to TAU for my Master's in Archaeology. It is a world-renowned program, ranked in the top 10 globally, and it shows. You learn from the top professors in the field and get experience working on actual archaeological digs, even beyond those planned by the program. There is space to grow and find your niche in a fraternal environment. The campus of TAU is excellent, located in North Tel Aviv in an upscale neighborhood. The graduate dorms are apartment-style and single occupancy, and the facilities are excellent. Although the campus is outside the city center, there are ample public and private transportation options.
