Apply for a scholarship

Help with tuition, handled with care

If the cost of Jewish education is a strain, you can apply for tuition assistance. Every application is reviewed privately and respectfully — your family's dignity comes first.

Creating an account currently takes an invitation from our office. Ask for one and we'll email it to you.

Who can apply

Families in our program's schools

Adopt A Talmud helps families whose children attend a school that partners with the program. If your school isn't in the program yet, you can still apply — we'll reach out to the school as part of the review. Submitting an application doesn't guarantee approval; the committee may approve, waitlist, decline, or ask for more information.

Before you start

What you'll need

Your household details

Family size and a picture of your financial situation — enough for the committee to understand the need.

Each child's school & tuition

The school each child attends, the school's full tuition, and what your family was charged.

A few minutes

The form saves as you go, so you can stop and come back without losing your place.

How it works

From application to the classroom

1
Request an invitation

Tell us who you are and we'll email you an invitation to create a family account. Most requests hear back within a few business days.

2
Apply

Once you're in, fill out one application for your household. You list each child and their tuition need.

3
We review, privately

The committee reviews your application against the program guidelines. Your financial details are never shown publicly.

4
Your school is confirmed

Assistance becomes available once both your application and your child's school are approved in the program.

5
Scholarships reach the school

Approved funds go directly to the school and are applied to your child's tuition — never paid out to families.

Your privacy is protected

Your financial information is seen only by the review committee. When a child is listed for donor support, they're identified by a code — never a name — and only with your consent. Donors see what they need to help, and nothing more.
