Israel Undergraduate SurveyConducted by a private research firm in conjunction with the National Union of Israeli Students, and now in its second year, a poll published in a pamphlet for prospective students attempts to gauge which schools provide the best atmosphere, academic and otherwise, for undergraduate students.
