Success in getting into schools after or during GAP YEAR?

Anyone care to share their experience of applying to schools AFTER OR DURING their gap year?

Take a look at this gap year thread: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/non-traditional-students/1680905-gap-year-thread.html#latest

I am an international gap year student with financial need, and I got into: Temple, Fordham, Clark U, Loyola New Orleans, Rhodes, and Mount Holyoke.

Other gap year students applied to schools successfully this year. Off the top of my head:

@viphan from the thread got into Duke among other schools.

@LAMuniv from the thread got into Vassar ED.

@Anduar3 from the thread got into Northwestern and Middlebury among other schools.

@dancingwriter‌ Thanks for the intro

OP, yes, I took a gap-year and after improving my stats and maturing a little more, I guess colleges started to notice the significant improvements.

If you have any questions, please ask the tagged people or myself.

Can folks share their gap year experiences too?

Thanks! Good info…
