The counselors will be there for you 24/7 in case of an emergency.
Besides, your routine will be as such where you will meet people in the Ulpan, work or in any other places. You will have special times to share together, build new relations and have fun. Maslool also provides with special trips, excursions, and cultural events throughout Israel, in which you will also meet the rest of your program-mates.
No worries. This is a flexible program, so if something doesn't work we can rapidly look for other solution. Also, we believe that a huge part of paving one's path, one must go in different routes. It is always possible to change your mind, before and mid program, as long as you communicate with our program coordinator accordingly. Of course, there might be some changes in your program cost or Masa funding, but this doesn't mean you cannot change your mind.
Yes, your vacation time depends on your program's length. Each Masa participant is eligible for a 10%-per-month vacation days, meaning, 3 days per month. You may accumulate these days, or use them separately, but you cannot use them all at once towards the end of your program. If you choose to go abroad, you can, just remember to follow the security instructions regarding certain places which will be provided by your Madrichim.
All said above can change according to Masa Israel Journey's or Maslool Program's rules. Traveling abroad during your program requires Maslool Program's authorization.
More than 1600 people from over 36 countries have participated in Maslool over the past 16 years. Our Instagram is the place to check out testimonials and learn about people's experiences. https://www.instagram.com/masloolprogram/
The answer is: as soon as possible so we can find you the bests spots and decide together the options with you. Of course, many of the internship places work all year round, but some have seasonal acceptance policy. This means, in order for you to keep all options open, beginning your registration process as soon as possible will be best. That being said, there are some cases where the registration/placement process depends on un expected factors, leaving few questions un answered, since we are dealing with people and their personal professional desires. This just means you must be patient, and allow the process go through its natural course.
