Yah same, mainly regarding financial aid. They told me they release that info in January

I spoke to a current student about that. Seems like they lost their American Federal Aide due to low board pass rates (because they factor int he American and Israeli students' scores and apparently, the Israeli's didn't do so well). Currently, you can only take out private loans, which have higher interest rates than federal loans. That being said, they're working on resolving the issue and federal loans should be available to American students by next year. Additionally, the cost of the program is much cheaper than most American schools so what you're going to be losing in high interest rates you'll make up in lower tuition costs.
That's just what I heard. Can't promise that it's accurate.

Have you heard anything back from them since Nov 1st?
I’m interviewing at BGU’s nyc office later this month. What’s the format of this interview day and how long does it last?
