Holly Bull is the President of the Center for Interim Programs, an independent gap-year counseling service in Princeton, NJ. She is one of the original Interim students. When her father, Cornelius Bull, founded the Center for Interim Programs in 1980, she was inspired to take a gap year before college.

After two years of college, Holly took a second gap year to travel in India and Nepal, attend a semester program in Athens, and engage in service work in Appalachia. Following her B.A. in Anthropology at the University of Virginia, she joined her father in his work at Interim and began counseling students through their own gap-year experiences. For two years, she also directed the U.S. office for her original program in Greece.

In 1994, Holly completed her Masters in Education at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education and continued her counseling work at Interim. To date, Holly has placed over 3,000 individuals in programs in the 30+ years she has been counseling students (and adults) through the gap-year process.
