The International MA Program is taught entirely in English.

The request must include a copy of an official transcript, the course title and description and the name of the lecturer. Students who receive an exemption from introductory courses must complete 38 credit hours by taking additional elective courses from the Porter school.

Student card

After the student has settled the tuition, a student card will be issued and and given by the program secretary at the beginning of the school year. Israeli students who registered through the Israeli registration portal will be sent the student card to their home address that is updated in the system.
