Hi, BH I start seminary in december 2016. I say latin because I finish high school in December but american/israeli seminaries starts in Chodesh Elul aprox. I want to grow and learn BH so I want something very religious, Im not very fluent in Hebrew but BH I speak pretty well. Im bet yaakov style, do not listen to non jewish music etc…
I heard of or Ateret Malca in bnei brak. I was about to apply in BJJ but I heard they obviously do not accept girls entering 3 months late, like many other seminaries. Oppinions? Options? THANK YOU! may you have lots of beracha and hatzlacha.
neimos.
Rachel-I am not sure where you live, but Iam aware that the sems know of the australian situation where the school year ends in December too. Wherever you are applying, calling, emailing and so on just explain that you are australian school system and end the year in December. An Israeli school wouldn’t davka get that so try american israeli, or places where they get girls from all over so they understand the situation.
You should be able to easily get in to a place if they understand it’s how the school system in your country works. One Israeli place that accepts girls from all over is Ofakim. But it’s VERY close minded. I wouldn’t go there but apparently there are like a few hundred girls there so it must be good, right? I haven’t looked into it since it’s not for me-but check it out!
Hatzlacha!
Try asking australians where they go…
I know Chedvas gets them sometimes.
I had friends in seminary from Brazil and South Africa- they all applied regular admissions cycle, did a semester of college in their home countries/worked, and then went to regular, Northern Hemisphere-calibrated seminaries.
Alternately, Darchei Bina (which unfortunately doesn’t seem right for you necessarily) has been known to take people in in the middle.
Apparently, South African girls do one of two things: either they graduate in December and wait until September to go to seminary, or they graduate 12th grade in June in order to be able to go to seminary in September.
A Latin seminary?
You must mean a convent. They got those in the Old City.
Sydney seminary
