The Israel XP student dorms are located in Ramat Ef’al, in the heart of central Israel. Ramat Ef'al lies between Ramat Gan and Kiryat Ono, adjacent to Tel HaShomer hospital, and a brief walk to the Aluf Sadeh bus stop.
Bar-Ilan University is located less than 10 minutes away, in Givat Shmuel. On Mondays through Thursdays, private buses shuttle students back and forth to the Bar-Ilan University campus.
The dorms are just a 15 minute cab ride from downtown Tel Aviv, and an hour from Jerusalem, with nearby bus stops to both.
Staff families live on the secure site to create a safe and welcoming ‘home away from home’ environment.
