Givat Shmuel sits right next to Bar-Ilan University and, by English Wikipedia's count, has Israel's largest community of young English-speaking lone immigrants: students, gap-year and post-army olim, lone soldiers, bnot sherut and young couples. The JLIC Shabbat community, the GSC and Bar-Ilan's International School are the three anchors.

7 צעדים, בסדר שבו רוב האנשים עושים אותם.

Plug into the JLIC Shabbat community
JLIC Mizrachi Givat Shmuel / Bar-Ilan runs Friday-night minyan and meals, a weekly kiddush and shiur, Torah Tuesdays and a women's chabura for students, lone soldiers, bnot sherut and young professionals. Its welcome packet links its WhatsApp community.

Choose where to live: dorms or the 'Old side'
Bar-Ilan's Park 100 dorms are the closest dorms to the Shabbat community; yearly contracts run October to September, and short stays go through the International School. Off campus, JLIC says most of its community lives on the 'Old side' (Ben Gurion, HaNasi, Yoni Netanyahu Sts). Start flat-hunting after Pesach for a summer move.

Use Bar-Ilan's International School as your base
The International School (Building 403) handles English-taught degrees, the Israel XP gap year, the ulpan and short-term dorm stays, and points new-immigrant students to Student Authority eligibility.

Get around without a car
Dan 32 runs through the campus to Tel Aviv; the Route 4 interchange stops have buses to Jerusalem late into the night; the nearest Red Line stops are Shenkar and Aharonovich. The light rail and buses stop for Shabbat.

כדאי לדעת
JLIC's support committee makes sure nobody is left without a Shabbat meal: ask. The city says it cannot give an arnona discount just for being a student. The campus gym (FitUp, Building 107) has women-only and men-only hours.
