Looks cool! Sadly I don't think Tufts is realistic for her, and part of the appeal of the St. Norbert's program is that you graduate in 4 years. Looks like you have to pay for an extra year with the Tufts program, which would be problematic for us.

Sounds like a cool program, but not a good school.

I had never heard of this school or program before, but it sounds pretty cool.

One difference, though, is that Princeton's program lasts an entire year. It does not give academic credit. I think that it's fantastic for colleges that can afford it to give students this opportunity.

OK, this is a new one. My daughter found a college that has it's own "gap" program. The students spend time at four different sites: an Outward Bound type thing, Latin America, a city, and New Mexico. They earn credits and then rejoin their classmates on campus in January.

Thoughts?
