As students ourselves, we want to help you get an insiders view of JMU’s campus as well as to experience all that JMU Hillel has to offer! We are here to help you in any way possible as you research, visit, and discuss JMU.

Spend a Weekend with Us! We would love for you to spend a weekend with us at anytime. Prospective students may spend a weekend with a Hillel member and get to see what goes on at JMU. You can spend the weekend with our close community and get a personal tour of JMU in hopes of getting a true feel for both James Madison University and Hillel. More information and arrangements can be made by e-mailing This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Other Opportunities: If you are planning a day trip to JMU our President would be more than happy to have lunch with you and your family at any time, to answer questions you may have and to show you around.

If you are interested in Jewish life on campus, or if you would like a tour, an overnight stay, or have any additional questions, please feel free to contact Beth Mannella, Hillel’s Membership Chair at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Please note that as Hillel is a completely student run organization, opportunities for visiting us during the summer are extremely limited.
