[quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that a gap year will most likely not change your decision unless you do something very productive with the year and do something to add to your application. I've also heard that it takes a much more motivated applicant to get in during a gap year. You are working more on your own and have to do much more leg work on your own to get recs and so forth sent. in your situation, my suggestion would be to go to UVA and transfer out if you don't like it. Otherwise, try something like Americorps and really give back to the community rather than travel and "take" from your mom's family. Guessing that will reflect much better on your apps.[/quote]
