During this gap year, students engage in extra-academic and non-academic courses, language studies, volunteer work, travel, internships, sports and more; all for the purpose of improving themselves and their resumes before going to college. These academic gap years are also called Pathways, Prep-Years and Bridge-Years.

In most cases, these students must have high academic ability, and not display a low academic performance. This is not for struggling teens or adolescents with behavioral challenges, as we will explain to parents and students.
