The application itself should take you about 20 minutes. If you have any
questions about your eligibility, you should contact us before you fill out the
application.
Below you can find some answers to commonly asked questions.
When will I know if I am accepted?
Applications are reviewed almost every day, so within several days, you
should receive e-mail notification of your "pending" acceptance into
the program. Of course, if you have any questions before then, you can
feel free to contact us at this email or by phone at the number below.
What do you mean by "pending" acceptance?
Acceptance means that you are eligible for a spot based on
availability. You will be notified once we know how many spots are
available and can confirm your space. In order to be considered for a
space you must complete the following steps:
1. You need to submit the confirmation form along with your deposit
and the waiver form.
2. You need to be interviewed.
Where do I get these forms, and how do I pay the deposit?
The forms are available on our web site in the "Forms" section. In
addition to the confirmation and waiver forms, which need to be
submitted right away; you can also download the medical and emergency
contact forms, to be submitted after your space is confirmed. Please
do not send in any deposits or forms until you have registered.
Your deposit can be paid online by credit card at the same location
(click the "Buy Now" button). You can also mail a check or money order
along with the forms to the address on the forms.
When will I be interviewed?
If you are a Loyola University student, once you have registered, please
contact Patti Ray to be interviewed. Your acceptance cannot be confirmed
without an interview. Patti can be reached by email at pray@luc.edu or by
phone at Hillela at Loyola - 773-508-2193.
I heard that there may not be enough spaces for everyone?
While we hope to accommodate everyone who wants to go, it is true that
the response to recent programs has been overwhelming. It is very
likely that there will be more applicants than spaces available.
We are really looking forward to these programs and promise you an
amazing adventure. If you have any questions at all, feel free to
e-mail or call Shorashim directly.
