About Scholarship

Taking a gap year between high school and college or university has so many benefits. It gives students a chance to mature, to travel, to have new experiences and gain new perspectives, to build skills, and really explore life outside the protected world of school. It can help them take their education more seriously, and do better when they return. However, taking a year off can be a financial hardship, especially if they want to work, travel or volunteer. The Mobilize Gap Year Scholarship makes it a little easier for them spend time on personal growth – and go back to school with greater energy and motivation.
