[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's a net negative now: See this thread on "spiritually Israeli" - very disheartening. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1317666.page[/quote] It’s not a net negative, but you have to be strategic. Approach it from a niche academic perspective, not a religious perspective. Scrub your ECs of religious activities. Same advice for Christian, Hindu, Muslim applicants. Religion, in my opinion, is better left off an application. But if you are a prospective Jewish studies major, you could have some really interesting ECs - academic research, internships, independent interests, blogs or podcasts, summer study abroads, language studies, and of course you should also have ECs that are unrelated — to give balance to your profile.
