How to Apply in Three Steps

Step One

Applying to a Tel Shimron Excavations 6-week or 3-week dig is simple. Your first step is to fill out the application by clicking the button above or below. You will be able to indicate on the application if you want to apply to the summer school credit program through Tel Aviv University.

At this time, we do not have a way for you to save progress on your application, so please start it when you have time to complete.
