That makes sense, also, each seminary (at least the ones in Israel) have someone from Israel fly in to do presentations for recruiting, and then again for interviews, and both times they come in, they speak to the administration of the schools about the students, and they also speak to the schools year round about who would be good for what school, and they, as much as it seems like it isn’t true, need to keep up some standard of living for their students and, especially when you are going to so many cities to do all of that, have to pay for transportation, and I am sure that the application fees do not even cover all those expenses completely by the time you get all the applications and see who ends up going to the seminary.
