Hi, I just saw your post, and I figured I would let you know that I graduated from the seminary last year, and going there was the best decision of my life.
I went there for 2 years, the first of which I did the full day learning program, and the second of which I did the Graphics program.
I am now a full time graphic designer, running the art department for a company in Manhattan.
Yes seminary is a small, in Ramat beit shemesh, and a family oriented place…but I believe this is a huge positive quality that makes them so unique.
At the end of the day no one needs more then once a week to go out in yerushaliam, and in Ramat beit shemesh there is such a warm community, that everyone who goes there feels at home.
I Highly recommend this place for your daughter, especially if you say you want her to go to a place where tziot and non jewish music wont be an issue…Clearly your looking for a place that will give a good hashkafa, and be a positive influence…and Halichoos is definitely that.
