What is a good "gap" year program?

What are some good gap year program websites that will let me apply this late in the year?

  • I'm suddenly interested in taking a gap year overseas. I was given a website by my school to look at, but the applications are already closed. I was wondering if anyone knows of any good full year exchange programs (based in Australia) that take last minute applications. I am currently in year 12 and want to go next year, but I might have to go in mid-year entry, or something along those lines. I am interested in teaching or teacher aide work, as I am planning on studying education at university. I would prefer programs that are in East Europe, Africa or Asia, but any is fine. Thankyou!

    Hi Taylor, Don’t worry, there a plenty of options for you to explore! Have you considered teaching English as a foreign language? All that’s required is that you’re fluent in English. You can earn money whilst experiencing a different culture and if you’re interested in a career in education it will look great on your C.V. There are opportunities available all over the world so it’s just a matter of deciding where you’d like to jet off to! You may like to take a look at this brochure for some more information: http://www.onlinetefl.com/contact-tefl-team/request-a-tefl-brochure.html?source=forumec Hope this helps!

Hey the only full year programme I can recommend in Australia would be a work abroad programme like this: http://www.realgap.co.uk/australia-the-ultimate-aussie-package-trip, you get help organising everything and 12 months access to a job finding service while you're there. Otherwise the site has lots of volunteer and adventure programmes in Africa and Asia, though the maximum stay is a few months http://www.realgap.co.uk/adventures or http://www.realgap.co.uk/volunteering. Good luck!

The Australian Catholic University offers exchange programmes. I suggest you visit the website page to find out more about the exchange programmes on http://www.acu.edu.au/student_life/study_abroad_and_student_exchange/ and your eligibility to apply. Wish you good luck!!!!
