Would a gap longer than six months require justification for my study abroad application?

Yes, a gap longer than six months in your academic or work history typically needs a clear explanation in your study abroad application.

Be prepared to:
- Explain the reason for the gap honestly, whether it was for work, personal reasons, health, or other circumstances.
- Provide supporting documents such as employment letters, medical certificates, or affidavits, depending on your situation.

Justifying the gap helps demonstrate your preparedness and genuine intent to study. If you need help presenting your gap, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you through the process.
