The Jewish Communal Leadership Program (JCLP) offers significant financial support to help make graduate study accessible. Every JCLP student receives guaranteed scholarship funding, and many receive additional awards as part of their admission package. Students can also apply for Judaic Studies funding to support field placements, conference travel, and other learning opportunities.

  • Guaranteed $6,000 per term for two Fall and two Winter terms.
  • Additional scholarships, with the aim to cover 50% of tuition costs, will be offered to students as part of their JCLP admission package.
    • Applications submitted by December 1 will receive funding priority.
