Last minute Gap year

Basically I hold offers but have decided that I would like to look at another option for next year because I would like to gain experience before I go to uni, can anyone help me with alternatives especially this late on?
I have not completely ruled out uni yet but would appreciate help so that I can compare and find what suits me best,
TIA
(PS-it needs to be as low cost as possible)
The lowest cost gap year will help you save money. Get a job.
I guess only you can decide without knowing more information about what you would like to do. Good luck with the decision

Hi Caitlin,

as PQ has said, getting a job is a good way to spend your gap year but there are loads of ways to spend it (both with and without money).

UCAS has a great article about ideas you can consider - click here to check it out. ^Kam
There's alot of options on what you decide for your gap year. Whereas some people get a job to save money, others tend to go abroad and volunteer/work and some decide to travel a few months and work a few months. It all depends on what you're looking for in your gap year. Here's an article I found about different gap year options:
