Admissions

Netzer Year is a gap year program for recent high school graduates who have not yet begun studying at college or university. Participants must have graduated high school and are generally between 17-20 years old. If you have already been accepted to college or university and are interested in applying to Netzer Year, please speak with your school's admissions office to see how to defer your admission. Most schools make this process very easy.
