The Expedition Education Institute offers traveling semesters for gap year and college students where they have the opportunity to come into profound connection with the natural world, with their peers and teachers who comprise their learning community, and with themselves. The program supports and challenges students to become leaders, educators, and change agents who will "be the change they want to see in the world." In partnership with Marlboro College, EEI offers a full semester of 15 college credits. College students visiting from another institution can transfer their federal financial aid to Marlboro College and bring their credits back to their college. Gap year students can enroll without the extra cost of the credits or they can choose to opt for the credit. College and gap year students can use 529 college funds to pay for an EEI semester. Notes on what is a gap year: a "gap" can be the traditional one between high school and college or can be any other gap in an education path--a common one being students taking a gap after a first or second year of college to re-evaluate or change direction. An EEI semester is excellent for supporting exploration of one's passions and gifts, development of 21st century skills, and engagement with deep learning and reflection.
