Tikvah Scholars Program

The Tikvah Scholars Program is a residential summer institute for current 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. We seek students who want to think deeply about serious questions, push their intellectual limits, and read the great works of the Jewish canon and of Western thought with world-class faculty in a vibrant and pluralistic community of students from around the world. The program seeks to advance Jewish excellence in the modern age by exposing some of the best Jewish students to the most important foundational works – the Hebrew Bible and Talmud, Philosophy and Literature, Ethics and Culture, and more – by probing questions in politics, economics, Zionist thought, and Judaism, guided by some of the top teachers, scholars, and policy makers.
