Chai Israel is comprised of male students between the ages of 17-19. Our students come from all types of Jewish backgrounds and upbringing regardless of Jewish observance or Knowledge. Students generally attend Chai Israel for a full nine month academic year but students may also attend for one semester either for the fall semester starting in September or Winter/Spring semester starting mid-January.
