How would you describe the

into 3 or 4 room suites with 2-3 students per room. Each apartment is equipped with bathrooms,

showers, and a kitchenette. There is a fitness room,student lounge, ping pong table and basket ball hoop on campus. Sports fields, swimming pools, tennis and

basketball courts are all nearby. We rent a gym weekly for the exclusive use of

our students.

Does the Yeshiva go to Poland?

Eretz HaTzvi organizes, for an additional fee,a mission to Poland. This optional programfocuses on the Shoah and on Jewish lifein Europe. Students are accompanied

by faculty members andexperienced guides.

What happens on Shabbatot and

Chagim? What happens when it is an “out” Shabbat?

Our dormitory is open throughout the yeshiva year. On the average of once every three weeks the Yeshiva runs a full Shabbat program

on campus. Students are in the Yeshiva for the following Yamim Tovim: Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Simchat Torah and Shavuot.

Students may spend Shabbat with family or friends on an “out” Shabbat. For those students interested,

the Yeshiva will arrange for hospitality in the Rebbeim’s homes or in communities throughout Israel. The Yeshiva

will organize neighborhood hospitality or meals on campus for students who choose to remain on

campus for an “out” Shabbat.

FAQSDo you have a

laundry service?The Yeshiva arranges for a reasonably

priced laundry and dry cleaning service.The service includes pickup and

delivery directly from the yeshiva.

What is the dress code atEretz HaTzvi?

• Proper shoes or sandals

• Shirts with collars

• Slacks or jeans

Do you provide internet

for your students? Are students allowed to bring

laptops, tablets, etc...?Computers with internet are provided by the Yeshiva for

student use. WiFi is also provided for those students who want to bring personal laptops as well.

Access to the Internet is available at set times throughout the day.

What are the security arrangements at

the Yeshiva?The well being of our students is our greatest priority and responsibility. Our secure campus is monitored

24 hours a day via closed circuit cameras and can be accessed with key cards and codes only. In his role as an

ambulance driver and IDF reserve commander, our Educational Director, Rav Benny, is in regular

contact with the Home Front Command,allowing us to make informed decisions

to provide for the safety of our students.

How will my Hebrew improve?

The best way to learn a language is to use it. We offer an ulpan throughout

the year. The advanced Gemara shiurim and some of the afternoon electives are in

Hebrew. Chavrutot with the faculty (Rabbis and Kollel) can be in

Hebrew as well.

How many meals do the

students receive each day? (And honestly,

how is the food?)Three balanced meals are served every day. Our caterer is known as the best in the business. The food isn’t good

“for yeshiva food”. It’s good food. Period. In addition, microwaves, sandwich machines andrefrigerators are available for student

use in the dining hall.
