Two documents authored by the research-planning project “Integration of the Ultra-Orthodox into Israel’s Economy”, led by Dr. Reuven Gal at the Samuel Neaman Institute at the Technion, shed light on the facts. Researcher Ilia Zatcovetsky found that the Haredi student population in Israel has grown in six years by more than a double – from 3,000 in 2006 to 7,350 in 2012 – and concluded that in the upcoming academic year it will reach 10,000.
