taking time off

<p>I'm a sophomore at a huge state school in MA, and have applied to a bunch of small LACs for fall '06. I still have no clue what to major in, and really feel like I'm drifting along without a purpose. I was thinking that it might be better to take next year off and work/travel before going back to school... </p>

<p>my question is, has anyone taken a year off in the middle of college, and if so, how hard is it to get back into school afterwards? Is it ridiculous to have spent all this time applying to schools for fall, only to have to do it all over again a few months later?</p>

<p>ALSO, is deferring transfer admission possible?</p>

<p>thanks!</p>
