University Deferrals
You may finish school or college, and have a sudden realisation that you just do not want to start your chosen university course just yet, and would rather embark on a once in a lifetime journey overseas, before returning home to knuckle down to some hard work.
This is not a problem and most universities are happy to accommodate those looking to defer their entry until a year later, giving you over 12 months to do something different and amazing, so why not travel and see the world?
You will have the time to mature as an individual before going to university and meeting a whole new group of people. Taking part in an interesting and meaningful trip overseas during your gap year will give you that added spark on arrival at university whilst providing some great stories to kick off any conversation with.
