[quote=Anonymous]DS applied and deferred starting college for one year. As part of the deferral agreement, he needed to provide the school a plan and submit a short paper in early January of his experiences. He planned his own year -- we gave him a set budget and he needed to do (1) something larger than himself; (2) travel; (3) work; (4) apply for scholarships. Bottom line -- he had a great year and in July/Aug he said he was ready for college. I was worried he would lose his academic momentum but it made him a better and more mature student. Best outcome for him. Good luck[/quote]
