A lot of seminaries say they want your motivations for wanting to learn in Israel, your expectations of seminary, your skills, interests, achievements, furute plans, background, goals… (I took that all from 2 seminary applications.) Just talk about yourself and your family.
nonikname: do you happen to know if when they give their deadline it means they wont accept applications after that? Also, when they say they want 4 pictures do they want four of the same picture?
