The Aish Campus Chile Adventure is an exclusive opportunity for Jewish undergraduates currently attending a university in the greater Boston area. Meet Jews from other countries, travel, gain deep insights into Jewish philosophy, and have the time of your life. The program's goals are to:

Provide an open forum to discuss and debate many of the most important issues related to the relevance of Judaism in today’s world
Encounter the similarities and differences of Jews from other cultures and backgrounds

Qualified applicants will tour in and around Santiago, travel to Pucon (a Chilean village at the base of the Villarrica Volcano), experience incredible outdoor adventure (hiking, whitewater rafting and more), voice their opinions in workshops, lectures and classes dealing with an array of Jewish issues and topics, and bond with other students from the Boston area.

The Aish Campus Chile Adventure is open to all Jewish students. Priority is given to those students that have never participated in this type of program before and to those who feel that they have not had the opportunity to explore their Jewish heritage in a deep or meaningful way.

All applicants will be subject to an interview. The staff of Aish Campus will determine acceptance independently, and their decision is final. Qualified candidates may be required to attend an orientation meeting at a date to be specified.

Apply now . Application Deadline – Monday, October 30, 2006. (Once your application passes an initial review, you will be contacted to set up an interview.)

The Aish Campus Chile Adventure is a project of Aish HaTorah and the Jerusalem Fellowships.
