[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP is incorrect - the Harvard admission letter discusses that you can take a gap year. Their website advertises that they encourage ALL students to take a gap year. https://college.harvard.edu/admissions/preparing-college/should-i-take-time Pomona does the same. As do other schools. No shame in a gap year, it's not a hidden signal that the student was not fully admitted in high school grad year. [/quote] No, the PP you mentioned is absolutely correct... there are students who are absolutely required to take a gap year by Harvard as a condition of being admitted. Other elite schools have a similar program. Please read this article: http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2014/4/3/the-legend-of-the-z-list/ [/quote]
