It is with great excitement that we share the application cycle and programming for the 2024 Herbert Shainberg Scholars Multicultural Exchange Program! As you know, our recently graduated Scholars Aditya Shah and Monica Ogunsusi had an incredibly rich experience this past Spring.

Their unanimous statement was “Mission Accomplished 1000%!”

BGU is going through some changes organizationally and in order to protect the integrity and quality of our program, we have been asked to hold at 2 scholars until the 2025 cohort.
