2 Please Note: A great deal of effort has been expended in preparing this Handbook, in order to ensure that its contents are complete and accurate. However, changes and alterations to the information are possible, and such changes, that will be published during the course of the year via various means, such as, the handbook on the IDC Herzliya website, will obligate the entire student body. Furthermore, changes that are published through notifications and circulars will obligate the entire student body. The IDC Herzliya Academic Authorities are at liberty to cancel, alter or add studies subjects and / or specialization programs, and to generate changes in the times of lectures or in the manning of the subject instructor posts, at its discretion. These changes apply to all IDC Herzliya students, including students of the Raphael Recanati International School, unless specified otherwise. This Student Handbook was prepared especially for the Raphael Recanati International School and includes translations of relevant sections of IDC Herzliya s Hebrew Student Handbook. If any discrepancies are found between the two, the Hebrew version will take precedence. Certain sections of the Hebrew version pertain specifically to law students and thus may be disregarded by students of the International School. 2
