USA Gap Year Fairs are a national circuit of events designed to provide students, parents, and high school counselors with a broad exposure of Gap Year Programs and the opportunity for face to face conversations with the people who work in the field.

A gap year is a period of time between completing high school and beginning college where a student steps outside the traditional classroom to prepare for their next purposeful step in life. This year often provides the student time to develop independence and confidence. For students and parents interested in Gap Year, these fairs are the legitimate source to connect with reputable organizations that focus on education, service and personal growth.

USA Gap Year Fairs also feature a speaker who provides an unbiased approach to Gap Year and the variety of offerings. Interested students and parents can learn about the entire Gap Year process; from application to deferring freshman year to reentering college when they return.
