My daughter is entering her senior year of high school in September of 2016 and will graduate in June 2017. Does anyone know if she is eligible for the Kennedy-Lugar YES program for a gap year? It is not clear to me from the website.
I believe she is eligible, but some counrtries may not allow/do not recommend gap years.
Thanks @Faultystart I guess that information is available when the application comes out?
I actually found that information on some past YES abroad participants’ blogs. Someone’s blog had a list (although it may be a bit outdated) so maybe you can poke around and find it somewhere.
On a slightly separate note, if your daughter is interested in YES abroad, she may be interested in something like the NSLI-Y academic year program (if she’s interested in any of the languages/countries) or she may be interested in something like CBYX (the high school one).
