This is a new seminary in Yerushalayim by Mrs. Liebenstein (formerly of Bnos Batsheva) & Mrs. Karp.
Any info would be appreciated (crowd, location, mission, etc.).
Thanks.

I am also interested in hearing more but I can tell you a little based on their open house. Mrs. Karp seems very warm and the type of person who really connects with the girls. (Mrs. Leibenstein wasn't there.) She emphasized 3 main areas: high academic level, relevance, and positivity. They are currently on the Neve campus in Har Nof, but are looking to move to a more central part of Yerushalayim. Mrs. Karp, most of the teachers and the Eim Bayits are from Binas. Would love to hear more from mothers of girls who are there this year. Also wondering if they have a uniform, because from what I understand, most seminaries do, and they don't.

Thank you.
Just wondering if it's going to be like Binas where Mrs. Karp is from or like Bnos Batsheva where Mrs. Liebenstein is from.

Its hard to know what a seminary will be like when it's their first year. However I went to Binas and was very close to Mrs karp, I attended the bnos shoshana open house to be able to see Mrs karp. From the sounds of it pretty much all the teachers, aym bayits and subjects are exactly the same as binas other than Mrs libenstein (who has also taught me in Havineini Shana bet)
I think it will be a very warm seminary with high caliber girls. The learning will be deep and intellectual yet relatable. The two aym bayits are amazing! Mrs nisenbaum is the night time aym bait and is very involved with dorm life. She's an exemplary told model, she is a mother of a bunch of boys and nothing fazes her, she is always calm and positive and makes the dorm fun and a positive environment.
I do believe they have a dress code, not a uniform which is what most seminaries have. You must wear a collared shirt and pleated skirt.

They only started a year or two ago so the amount of girls who’ve gone is small compared to seminaries that are in existence for many years. It makes sense that you can’t find information about it.

I went to binas which Mrs. Karp was the assistant principal of until she opened Bnos Shoshana. Mrs. Karp is a gem, a truly kind and wise mechaneches. I don’t know what Bnos Shoshana is like but I would trust an institution led by her.
