If you reread the Harvard article it talks about taking off before and DURING college. As that section of the website is geared to freshmen the focus is on taking a year off before. However the article says</p>

<p>“Taking Time Off Before or During College”</p>

<p>“In fact about 20 percent of Harvard students follow the practice of “time-out” at some point before graduation.”</p>

<p>With only a few percent doing it before college it should be obvious to even your math skills that a much large number do it DURING college.

And yet, Harvard still manages to graduate 87.8% in 4 years, and UW 49.7%.</p>
