[quote=Anonymous]One other benefit for doing a gap year after acceptance is that you have more time to plan for college life. You most likely will need to resubmit your housing application and usually the priority for choosing housing is based on the application date. So since you are definitely "in," you can apply super early to secure an early priority date. Of course the procedure varies from school to school. Also, you have much more time to research dorms and get various dorm essentials while on sale. Also, if you follow the parent boards for your school, you can see learn about all the issues/challenges that kids might be having and prepare for them ahead of time. You could possibly use the gap to also apply for outside scholarships.[/quote]
