Do NOT use for K-12, Bituach Leumi welfare benefits (use israeli-bituach-leumi), tuition loans, MFA scholarships for inbound foreign students, yeshiva/kollel stipends, or general post-army benefits beyond education (use israeli-miluim-manager).

The Problem
Israeli higher-education students leave money on the table every year because Israel's scholarship landscape is fragmented across the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Education, the Council for Higher Education, Nefesh B'Nefesh, the Rashi Foundation, ISEF, individual universities, and dozens of smaller foundations. A single student is typically eligible for 3-5 distinct scholarships but knows about 1, and most application windows cluster in May-September with hard cutoffs that forfeit the year's grant if missed.
