<p>I am thinking about doing a gap year to Israel. Has anyone at Wellesley done a gap year before attending? What was your experiences? Do you recommend it? How did the deferment work? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

<p>I did not do a gap year, but a few students do it every year (for various reasons). I believe Wellesley only grants you one year of deferment after you are accepted; however, based on what you’re doing, I’m sure other arrangements could be made if needed.</p>
<p>my friend is currently doing a gap year in france and she loves it! i almost wish I had done it…but everyone has their own life path. however, i must say, if you are at all thinking of being pre-med or pre-vet, taking a gap year before undergraduate school is probably not the best decision, as you’ll want at least the option of a gap year before you do intensive graduate work.</p>
