“Nothing will come of nothing.” – King Lear. Translation? If you want to be successful, do something about it! Nothing will ever happen in your life if you sit around waiting for it to happen. Take action, and live a fulfilling life. A Gap Year can be a great option, but the key is to do SOMETHING, because nothing will come from nothing.
What is a “Gap Year”?
Students in the U.K., Australia, and Canada commonly take time off between high school and college to gain real-life experiences through travel, language immersion, community and conservation service programs, outdoor adventure, and professional internships. Now, U.S. students are catching on to the awesome advantages of a Gap Year. COST: Scholarships are sometimes available to students wishing to participate in these programs. Students must work with the program coordinator for details and specifics.
