Check in with you one-on-one at key times throughout the experience, especially as you transition to more independent learning modules such as Language & Culture and Business & Internship.
Serve as your primary contact for answering questions, navigating unexpected challenges, and resolving any conflicts on program.
Collaborate with local ground staff abroad, if necessary, to resolve any unexpected operational issues.
Identify and mediate gradual change blindness that occurs when students travel.
Your Gap Year Advisor will share their email and phone number with you, so they're always just an email, call, or text away.
