If an admission’s counselor asked you what you did after high school during a long gap, what would you say? I became depressed after high school, and didn’t do much. I have a 5 year gap. In my letter that I’m writing, I said that I had an illness which didn’t let me continue my education. This lasted for about 3 years, but I had to take care of my father afterwards because he was in poor health. I then traveled for about a year before starting to go to community college.
I have since been doing great and even have a 3.9 GPA. I’m in my last semester before I’ll be able to transfer. I don’t know how to word this or if I should even say some of it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
