Apply Now for the Stephen Muss Impact Fellowship to Attend Alexander Muss High School in Israel

Students entering their sophomore and junior years of high school are invited to apply for the Stephen Muss Impact Fellowship, a program that offers individual $15,000 scholarships to Alexander Muss High School in Israel (AMHSI). The meaningful experience, taking place August 26-December 23, 2024, enables Jewish students residing in Miami-Dade County to spend a semester living and learning in Israel, made possible by Stephen Muss and the Greater Miami Jewish Federation. AMHSI is the only fully accredited, pluralistic, college prep program for high school students to study together in Israel for a semester. Fellows return home ready to take their place as Jewish changemakers and ambassadors for Israel and the Jewish people. Applications are still being accepted and can be accessed here. For more information, contact Alicia Press at [email protected] or 212.472.9300 x481.
