Hi there!

Hope you are having a nice day!

I would like to inform you that a gap certificate or gap affidavit is a self-declaration given on a non-judicial stamp paper that states the period and reason of the interval taken clearly. Further, if a student wasn’t able to complete his course in a given time and therefore has dropped out, he will be required to submit a gap affidavit/certificate. In it, the student needs to declare that they were neither involved nor assisted in any illegal case and that no legal case has been registered in their name. Solicitation of wrong information may even lead to cancellation of admission. There are several reasons which may result in a student taking a gap from his studies. These gaps may range from one to more years. Cause of gaps can also vary greatly. Some of the common reasons for a gap year in education have been mentioned below:

  • Financial Difficulty
  • Critical Health Problems
  • Personal Reasons
  • Employment
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Preparation for Entrance, Certification Examinations
  • Applying Overseas
  • Pursuit of Sports/Hobbies/Liberal Arts.

All the best for your future!

Thanks
