A gap year program may be just the thing for high school graduates looking to take a year off on between graduation and college to find themselves. This year is often very important to a budding young woman or man who wants to experience life before college. Gap year programs abroad, in particular, help connect students with other cultures and help them gain an appreciation for countries other than their own. This may involve a three-week long trip to Europe, or a wilderness canoe trip through some of the world's most scenic landscapes. Others take place on American soil, closer to home, yet far enough away that older teens can explore other regions of their homeland.

Levels of Expertise: Consider your child's expertise when helping them choose gap year programs. Some involve intense hiking, while others involve backpacking and camping. Make sure your child can handle the physical stresses many of these camps demand.

What to Ask the Camp Director: Which program is best for my child? Some are meant for older teens, such as those ages 17 to 19, while others are for younger teens, ages 13 to 15. Each program may also be based on ability level, so be sure to inquire.

Highlights: Campers can experience life to its fullest within gap year programs, participating in anything from fishing and canoeing to nature studies and leadership building activities.
