Alumni Perspective
“At Brandeis I found the professors with whom I met to be welcoming and interested in me as a prospective student. They were familiar with my CV and letters of recommendation and intent, and knew who I was as an applicant to their program. The staff and faculty members were helpful and kind during my visit. The warmth they showed me and their passion for their field of study and knowledge left me with a really good intuition about Brandeis. I felt as though it was my bashert graduate school.”

Admissions
The Hornstein Program enrolls a select group of talented students each year. We consider students who care deeply about the Jewish future, and who have demonstrated leadership capacities and academic accomplishments.
We encourage you to visit campus at some point in your application process. Sitting in on classes, talking with faculty members and meeting students is the best way to learn if Brandeis is right for you. Get in touch with the Hornstein office, 781-736-2990, to arrange a visit.
