October 18, 2012 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm #907379crisisoftheweekMemberThey check the following.
1: The ability of your parents to pay
2: Whether or not you fit their mold they want to project
3: How easily they can control your thought process

Blaming your failings on others is not a sign of maturity.
Posting lies makes you a liar.

October 26, 2012 3:26 am at 3:26 am #907383crisisoftheweekMemberWho said I’m blaming anyone for anything?
And lies? not quite.
These places want students that A: can afford to be there B: will be a positive reflection on the institution C: will not cause any trouble by demonstrating independent thought.

November 16, 2012 2:37 pm at 2:37 pm #907386popa_bar_abbaParticipantPosting lies makes you a liar.
That is the perhaps the stupidest thing anybody has ever said on the internet.
Does posting ties make you a tire?
Does posting flies make you a flyer?
Does posting lies make you a lyre?
Does posting dyes make you a dyer?
Sheesh. It’s pretty clear which seminary you went to.
November 16, 2012 4:02 pm at 4:02 pm #907387mommamia22ParticipantA lot depends on the type of seminary you are applying to. Some are very academically oriented, and therefore, will seek out students with top grades who they know can handle the curriculum. Others are more focused on hashkafah and molding their students and would more carefully consider girls with good reputations as well as the academic portion.
