Overview

## What is the Entrepreneurship & Business Administration BA?

It’s a bachelor’s degree that pairs a full business foundation (marketing, finance, accounting and statistics) with hands-on entrepreneurship. Reichman calls it the first of its kind in Israel. At its heart, students build an initiative in teams, from idea to implementation, with mentors from Israel’s startup community, entrepreneurs and investors.

### ✓ A good fit if you…

- Want a business degree where you build a real venture, not just study cases
- Have strong quantitative and analytical skills, which the program asks for
- Want to study in English inside Herzliya’s startup ecosystem
- Are an oleh or olah under 27 who can start within 3 years of aliyah

###! Think twice if you…

- Want a single-major business degree. Reichman also offers a BA in Business Administration.
- Need the lowest possible tuition. Reichman is a private university.
- Prefer working solo. The core of the program is a team venture.

Olim funding

## Can olim get funding for this degree?

Often, yes. The Student Authority of the Ministry of Aliyah and Integration supports olim studying for a bachelor’s who are under 27 and start within 3 years of aliyah. Check your situation below.

### Likely eligible for Student Authority aid

You’re under 27 with 26 months left to start. The grant covers up to the standard state tuition, so expect to pay the rest of Reichman’s fee.

See my full breakdown →

**10 November** First Student Authority application, online

**1 October** Renewal each following year

**Under 27** BA age limit, starting within 3 years of aliyah

A guide, not a ruling. The program must be recognized by the Student Authority. The 3-year window doesn’t count regular army service, national service or Masa programs. If you get any grant, tell Reichman’s tuition office so it can revise your payment plan.

*i*

**Not an oleh? Look at Masa.** Reichman lists Masa grants for international students aged 18–35. They depend on your country, age and program and cover the first year only. You apply after you’re accepted, do 30 hours of volunteering, can’t hold a work visa while funded, and the grant stops if you make aliyah and start receiving government aid.

Costs

## What it costs in 2027–28.

Reichman’s published figures for its English-taught undergraduate programs. All sums are subject to change.

**Annual tuition** 2027–28, from Reichman’s undergraduate brochure. Subject to change. $20,900

**Materials fee** Charged a year to students in the Schools of Communication, Computer Science, Entrepreneurship and Psychology. $300

**Down payment to reserve your place** Counts toward tuition. Refunded in full if you withdraw in writing by 15 July 2027. $1,050

**Application fee** Paid when you apply. $100

**Health insurance** Optional, per academic year. ₪4,970

**Reichman dorms** Optional, per month, depending on the room. $1,100–1,300

**Living costs** Reichman’s estimate of other monthly expenses. $700–900

**For reference: first-year tuition, 2025–26** Reichman’s last per-program fee sheet. $17,200

*!*

**Olim, read this before budgeting.** The Student Authority pays up to the standard state tuition, which Nefesh B’Nefesh currently lists as ₪12,017 a year for a bachelor’s. At universities it reimburses you after you submit proof of payment. Reichman’s fee is well above that, so plan for the difference and get figures in writing before you pay the deposit.
