USA Gap Year Fair
at Agnes Irwin School, Rosemont, PA
Thursday, March 4, 6-8 p.m.

A Gap Year is a period of time between completing high school and beginning college when a student takes one year to step outside the traditional classroom to explore the world, reflect on their personal values and goals, and prepare to take the next purposeful step in life. Some programs are domestic while others are international, some are for short periods of time and others for the entire year, some are free and others have tuition, but by and large it is evident that students benefit from the experience.  There is no admission fee to attend the Gap Year Fair.  Read more in the Main Line Media News for a list of participating organizations     Google map
