"I'm not ready for college yet..."
Those words need not cause panic and fear for parents. Taking time
off before or during college is no longer the road less traveled
for many students in the United States. A gap year offers students
the opportunity to gain focus and discipline, learn to set
realistic goals, get real-world experience, and ultimately get the
most out of a college educaiton.
A complete resource, "The Gap-Year Advantage" provides parents with
all the advice, tips, and information they need to help students
develop and implement a gap-year strategy. With answers to commonly
asked questions such as "What do colleges think of gap years?" and
"Can I be certain my cheld will go or return to college after
taking time off?," education experts and gap-year parents Karl
Haigler and Rae Nelson also offer guidance on researching program
options, creating a gap-year time-line that complements the
college-application process, communicating with students about
their goals, and handling logistics such as travel, health
insurance, and money.
With anecdotes from students and parents across the country who
have taken gap years, this valuable guide also provides extensive
information on program options in the United States and abroad that
include volunteering, travel, interning, and specialized study.
