[quote=Anonymous]I don't think so. Younger than 16 would raise eyebrows, and I think you'd have to explain from a maturity standpoint. They might be more comfortable with a commuter situation, because it poses a problem for dorm living. But from 16 to 18? No. What DOES pose problems, sometimes, is the older student who hasn't shown much for their gap years. Colleges get worried they won't be able to jump back into academics. I would advise that unless the gap program is top notch, the student includes some classes at the community college, or work in a research lab, or something intellectual. Older than 20 also raises dorm living questions. [/quote]
