[quote=Anonymous]Let her go! She has a solid plan and Cornell will be fine with it. Our dd took a gap year and it was great for her. She pursued ballet. Requested a deferral but then rethought her plan and applied to other schools and ended up going to one of them. Spent the last 3 years pursuing various jobs and now applying for her STEM PhD and having success with top universities. Letting the teen decide is best. Our other kid switched gears and changed colleges midway and is now doing much better and has matured more than if we didn’t accept the new plan. Letting the kid lead yields a happier more successful kid much of the time.[/quote]
