Looking for a seminary for my academic, typical bais yakov daughter, not too yeshivish. Which other seminaries are hashkafically similar to machon raaya?

I went many years ago, but we had girls who applied to Bnos Sarah, BJJ, Ateres (highest academic track), Bnos Chava, Michlalah, Mesores Rochel, Me’Ohr, Seminar, even a couple Darchei Binah. Of course there are several new seminaries that have opened up in the past five or so years. Binas may be similar; I know they share some teachers.

Thanks for the responses.
Are bnos Avigail or bnos Chava similar to machon raaya in terms of hashkafa? What kind of girls typically go to those 2 places?

DD applied to Machon Raya and Bnos Avigail, got accepted to both and chose BA. Machon Raya students are typically “cooler” than BA girls (and BC girls even jappier). Machon Raya also gives a lot more work than BC (with BA somewhere in between). BA has more of an OOT type reputation than the other two. Hashkafically they seem pretty similar to me. They’re all wonderful seminaries I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them

Oh interesting, can you elaborate on how they are opposites? Binas had some similarities when they first opened like 10 years ago, but I’m sure things have changed since.

And I forgot about Bnos Avigail - definitely a great choice, similar to BYMR in a lot of ways.
