What is a gap year?
The phrase ‘gap year’ has traditionally meant spending a year abroad on a structured programme while taking a break from study, with this rite of passage typically embraced by college leavers before they start university or their next steps. There are plenty of reasons to take a gap year. For instance, you can learn to live independently, volunteer to gain more experience or simply give yourself time to think about your next step.
