Application under the Freedom of Information Act regarding entry of West Bank students to Israel for the purpose of academic studies

On July 31, 2012, Gisha submitted an application under the Freedom of Information Act to the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), asking for the procedures, criteria and considerations employed by the authorities with respect to allowing students from the West Bank to enter Israel for the purpose of academic studies. Gisha requested, inter alia, that COGAT release information and figures about the process of applying for permits for this purpose including the number of applications filed, the number approved, which office approves or denies these applications and demographics on the applicants and on those who receive approval.
