IMPORTANT for First-Year Students

Before the start of the winter semester, a one-week intensive block is held to prepare students for the regular beginner Hebrew courses offered during the semester. The intensive block is mandatory for first-year students with no prior knowledge of Hebrew who wish to enroll in one of these beginner courses.

First-year students with sufficient knowledge of Hebrew may be exempted from participating in the intensive block. Depending on prior knowledge, it may also be possible to enter directly into a higher language level. Please contact kevin.trompelt(at)hfjs.eu well in advance of the start of classes.

This year’s Modern Hebrew intensive block will take place from October 5 to 9, 2026. You can find the exact dates in the course catalog.
