Reply To: Another Sem thread. But really, please- open me anyway!

Everyone I know in real life (Not on the CR) tells me to go to Chedvas. My mechaneches this year asked me when I spoke to her last “Have you heard of Chedvas? It would be great for you next year”

I will try out for Chedvas, but I want to have other options. I feel that one of the reasons I keep getting advice to go there is because it’s a very well known sem over here versus the ones you guys are mentioning.

I guess I’ll have to look into Pninim, but Chedvas I’m definitely signing up for. Everyone who knows me tells me it’s my type. I just don’t want to just jump there without hearing about other places too, you know?

I didn’t know chutz la’artzim only can go for shana bet….I was hoping I’d befriend girls from chutzz la’aretz too. Do they at least dorm together? I am aware classes are separate but do they have a lot of time to interact with each other and girls make friends, or not so?

Thanks everyone for your help.

So can anyone tell me what Levavi is like? Or give me a run down of Pninim in a paragraph. And how do you “look into” a sem? Go there? Find alumnei? How?
