I am sophomore at the University of Oregon taking a gap year for the 2023-2024 school year. I am 2 years ahead in credits and graduating. Taking this gap year will also make me eligible to get in-state tuition. I major in human physiology with an interest of being a certified Athletic Trainer with my masters.
I want to use my free time to stay busy and gain new life skills, and work experience, and save up funds to pay for my college career to avoid debt.
