The Center for Interim Programs was invaluable in helping me plan my gap year in 2012-2013. I worked with the counselor, Holly Bull, and she helped me narrow down my interests and places I wanted to visit to create a dream gap year. Through their extensive vetting of a plethora of programs and opportunities and their years of experience, they helped me to fill my gap year with a variety of options that suited me perfectly. I did a language program in Italy, a yoga teacher training in the Caribbean, and a business internship in Ireland. Each of which was wonderful and has continued to benefit me through the years. My gap year not only helped me as I navigated college, but I was told by my interviewer when I interviewed for my first job out of college that it was my experience on my gap year that really got me the job. I'd recommend Center for Interim Programs to anyone who wants to plan a diverse, rich and individualized gap year.

We trusted this organisation to help our daughter but found them to be very unorganized and ultimately dishonest. Not one of the jobs they pretended to have materialized, and this only became clear after we had epnt over a thousand bucks, which naturally we were not allowed to get back. The Center For Interim Programs are scammers.

Our daughter is currently a resident in General Surgery in a notable military residency program, as she's also an officer in the US military.I have to say, her gap-year time after graduating from high school, facilitated by the Center for Interim Programs, LLC, and specifically, doing marine conservation work in Pez Maya, might well have cemented her interest in the sciences.  She later graduated from undergraduate school at a well-respected U.S. university with a B.S. degree in biochemistry and worked for a few years as a biochemist in an industrial lab, before realizing that she wanted to go into medicine. While still an industrial chemist, she studied for and took the MCAT exam and applied for and was accepted by more than one U.S. medical school to which she applied.  This was no easy feat, since her undergraduate degree was not pre-med, and she had little clinical experience. During the application and interview process for med school, our daughter noted that her gap-year time and volunteer work seemed to significantly weigh into their decision about her.  They were very interested in those experiences, beyond just her academic record.  She ended up graduating with honors from a very fine U.S. medical school.  I believe that her gap year between high school and college was a wonderful thing; it certainly helped her to focus her interests and her life. We are very grateful to the Center for Interim Programs, LLC, and very proud of what our daughter has accomplished!
