    • ​If you do not have a valid passport (i.e. it will not expire 6 months from scheduled departure date) please apply for a passport ASAP. If you do not have a valid passport you cannot go on the trip.
  • For Trip Selection, choose "Campus Trip" and select SF Hillel (Bay Area Campuses).

    • ​For the time being, students will NOT be eligible for an interview for birthright until they have uploaded proof of vaccination. Students will need a negative test within 72 hours of departure. Upon arrival in Israel, everyone will be tested again and pricked for an antibody screening.
