About Program
The Future Framers Gap Year is a hybrid, part-time, 9-month program for those 17-25 to understand your world and make your mark on it. We support your self-directed gap year and leave you with the skills, knowledge, and connections to move powerfully toward your goals. The program consists of two in-person camps with your program cohort, one in fall (Charter Camp) and one in spring (Capstone Camp). The rest of the sessions are online, 6-8 hours per week. Participants develop friendships and community within the cohort through weekly group sessions, group projects, and our internal social network. The curriculum is varied and fun, united by the themes of the program: personal and professional development, the changing world, and action. There are daily opportunities for practice and self-expression, particularly in writing and digital media. Applicants from around the world are welcome. We have rolling admissions with applications accepted until all spaces in the program are filled.
