Forum Topic: "Digging ditches in the Summuhhhh..."

Post a new topic
What up? My name's Nathan. I'm thinking of taking a year off from school working for my dad's landscaping business. Does anyone have suggestions whether this is a good idea...I mean putting off college. Should I apply now and defer? Which schools do defer?

Cheers,
N

Taking time off to work is a sucky idea. Take time off to travel, take time off to sit on your ass, but don't take time off to work, especially in a field so fruitless as landscaping. Go to school, don't bother with this defering crap.

Almost all schools will let you defer, it's just that there is a deadline you have to make, just check the websites of whatever schools you've been accepted to and they'll tell you when that deadline is...also, tell them you're going to travel, they'll like that.

Personally, I'm doing the same thing, so I think it's a good idea. DEATH-COW GO EAT A HOCKEY PUCK!!!! I mean it's a good idea. You're just mad because your probably like I was, a grade grubber! HAHAHA

I think most schools allow you to defer, just beat the deadline. do what zoetripical puncing bag suggests.. IGNORE DEATH-COW!!! HE HE!
