Should be noted that mikvahs are used for purposes other than conversion. There's no indication that Reform or Conservative Jews don't appear to be barred. Because Israel doesn't recognize different kinds of Jews, Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, Modern Orthodox, Reconstructionist et al. There are no non "Orthodox" conversions in Israel because there is no distinction between artificial branches. And though Reform and Conservative converts from outside of Israel are eligible for aliyah, they're not necessarily recognized as Jews. Kind of a non issue.

Any convert to Judaism is a Jew.

Do We REALLY Accept Converts?
