Hi, i've read through the threads on gap year working abroad and found some websites but is it different once youve graduated?
I didnt have a gap year and want one when ive finished uni but will i not be allowed to apply or do the same things as pre-uni students?

Anyone know anything about this?

I think its pretty similar - most of the restrictions as to visas etc are normally age related, though there are a few for summer holidays for uni students - but some proof that you have recently graduated might be useful.

Where you want to go and what you want to do??

Anywhere and anything!

I think I'd like to go to america or canada ideally, and any kind of fun job, i just want something to look forward to, travel to a different place and meet new people.

My dissertation is getting me down tbh.

tell.me.about.it............i'd just like to get on the first flight out of britain when i finish, bit of a gamble with no real funds but if i can get a few friends together i'm gone, you're not the only one who needs a change of scenery, good luck.

I know you said you've looked at some websites already, but www.gapyear.com is brilliant and will give you loads of advice. Gap Years are pretty much for any age, depeneding on how you want to spend it. Most placements etc are still open to graduates.
