Hello,
I've searched this forum, and have checked out most north american monastery websites, but have not had much luck.
I am looking for monasteries in North America accepting serious, long-term novices or pre-novices for the following year.
Thanks

Re: North American monasteries receiving novices?
Forgive me, but if you have, as you say,
I take it, obviously, that you seek a Theravada Monastery...
We would probably suggest Monasteries you have already investigated....
Unless you also try abroad, it looks like a faint hope....
Have you considered overseas?

You will not be punished FOR your 'emotions'; you will be punished BY your 'emotions'.
Pay attention, simplify, and (Meditation instruction in a nutshell) "Mind - the Gap."
‘Absit invidia verbo’ - may ill-will be absent from the word. And mindful of that, if I don't respond, this may be why....

Hello tea leaf,
Maybe trawling through this long, long list of North American sites could reveal something:
