Expertly designed semesters that transcend a "gap."

A Carpe Diem semester or Latitudes Year is not merely a "gap" in your resume or academic career. Instead, our programs are designed for students who want to approach the next chapter of their lives meaningfully and intentionally. While we travel, we spend time learning about the world around us and reflecting on how newfound passions can be the catalyst for each individual's journey.

Committed to the highest standards in the industry.

Carpe Diem is accredited by the Gap Year Association (GYA), a nonprofit organization that is recognized as setting the standard for the gap year industry for risk management, responsible community engagement, and educational value. Since becoming one of the first organizations to pass the GYA’s rigorous set of 125 standards in 2014, Carpe Diem Education has continued to be a leader in gap year program safety, quality, and integrity.

“Through Carpe Diem I was given the space to grow, learn, and feel every experience to the fullest extent without judgment. If I could go back and do it again, I would not change a single thing about my experience.”
