Program for Gap Year in the UK?
-
I've always wanted to go to the United Kingdom, and now that I'm about to graduate high school I feel like a gap year there is a real option for me. However, I have limited resources and can't afford to par 20,000 dollars to go. Does anyone know a program where I can study abroad (or work abroad) without paying an arm and a leg?

Answer:
Glad to see that you're considering a gap year! I did a lot of research before starting my gap year, and I found countless organizations online that required exorbitant prices to volunteer, intern, and work. I, however, did not have nor wanted to spend a lot of money during my gap year. In my eyes, a gap year is about independence, 'roughing it', and opening your heart to new experiences and people. A different type of learning, if you will. Here are some websites that I came across that offer free volunteering and work experiences: http://www.helpx.net/ http://www.wwoof.org/ http://www.idealist.org/ I'm sure there are programs more specific to the UK if you look for them. I also recommend getting a job now/over the summer to save up. It's always useful to have a bit of extra cash. Hope this helps, and good luck!
