Prospective Students

Welcome to Hillel at Ithaca College! We have a lot to offer and are excited you are interested in learning more about Jewish Life at IC.

Thinking about coming to IC?

If you are considering coming to Ithaca, it's a good idea to visit campus and get a taste of what life is like here. Our home base at Muller Chapel is a short walk from the Office of Admission. We have Shabbat services every Friday at 6pm while classes are in session, followed by Shabbat dinner. If you'd like to join us for a Friday night Shabbat dinner or learn more about our programs, just reach out to us at hillel@ithaca.edu.

We invite you to watch our virtual campus tour "Ithaca is Gorges AND Jewish" presented by Hillel's student leaders.  

How do you do Jewish?

Whether you express your Jewish identity through religious, cultural, social, educational or social justice activities, or are just wanting to explore what being Jewish means to you, you can find a welcome at Ithaca College Hillel.  Jewish students at Ithaca College come from a wide variety of Jewish backgrounds.
