Overview

## What is the Global MBA?

The Global MBA is designed for executives and future business leaders and uses Israel’s tech ecosystem as its classroom. Students take core courses in general management and specialize in one of two tracks. The Innovation & Entrepreneurship track includes a practicum in early-stage startups and VCs, venture creation training and company visits in Israel and the US. The Arison Leadership Development Program, modeled on programs at INSEAD and IMD, runs through the degree.

Olim funding

## Can olim get funding for this master’s?

Often, yes. The Student Authority of the Ministry of Aliyah and Integration supports olim studying for a master’s who are under 30 (in some cases 35) and start within 3 years of aliyah. Check your situation below.

I am…

My age when studies start 26

Months since aliyah (excluding army or national service) 10

✓

### Likely eligible for Student Authority aid

You’re under 30 with 26 months left to start. The grant covers up to the standard state tuition, so expect to pay the rest of Reichman’s fee.

**10 November** First Student Authority application, online

**1 October** Renewal each following year

**Under 30** MA age limit (in some cases 35), within 3 years of aliyah

A guide, not a ruling. The program must be recognized by the Student Authority. The 3-year window doesn’t count regular army service, national service or Masa programs. If you get any grant, tell Reichman’s tuition office so it can revise your payment plan.

*i*

**Not an oleh? Look at Masa.** Reichman lists Masa grants for international students aged 18–35. They depend on your country, age and program and cover the first year only. You apply after you’re accepted, do 30 hours of volunteering, can’t hold a work visa while funded, and the grant stops if you make aliyah and start receiving government aid.

Costs

## What it costs in 2026–27.

Reichman’s published graduate fees for 2026–27. All sums are subject to change.

**Program tuition** 2026–27. ₪105,000

**Down payment** Due within two weeks of your acceptance letter. Counts toward tuition. ₪9,900

**Payment plan** Pay in full by the start of classes, or monthly from November 2026. Instalments add interest and fees. Monthly

*!*

**Olim, read this before budgeting.** The Student Authority pays up to the standard state tuition, which Nefesh B’Nefesh currently lists as ₪16,239 a year for up to two years (₪32,478 in total) for a master’s. For a one-year MA it pays up to ₪32,478, half during the year and half after you graduate. At universities it reimburses you after you submit proof of payment. Reichman’s fee is well above that, so plan for the difference and get figures in writing before you pay the deposit.
