CP 201_: a thread for college program hopefuls who have to wait a few years.

[keypooh90]

JEALOUS OF YOU BOTH.

I haven't been to a Disney park in three years, and I'm kind of dying to go back. Last time I went, I wasn't quite the Disney freak I am now, but it was still SO much fun. My sister is going next March for drill team, and I'm hoping I get to go with her (given I can take off school/find some money...)

I hope both of you have an amazing trip! :goodvibes

Thank you!

I could not wait three years between trips. My family goes once yearly, at least.

[FairyPiranha]

I am jealous, we used to do once to 4 times+ an year but my parents got bored x.x And I can share your exitement over DCP my parents are like :rolleyes: One day!!

Aww...that stinks. Thankfully, my mom loves it as much as I do...in fact, Disney love runs in our blood. My grandparents took my mom and her brother to WDW at least 2x per year from opening month in 1971 to when my mom graduated from college in 1986.

[Ajaz]

Thank you!

You're SO lucky! I've only been to WDW twice, in second grade and then sophomore year, and DLR once in sixth grade. :sad2:

[keypooh90]

Aww...well, I bet that sort of makes the trips more special, then? Although, WDW has become my second home/happy place. Like I posted earlier, it sort of runs in my blood. My grandparents took my mom and uncle in November of 1971, and then they went every March after that, along with a few bonus trips every year until her college graduation in 1986. My sister and I have pretty much grown up at the parks.

My mom wants to work at WDW after she retires (part time). I ultimately want to end up in management in some capacity, and my sister wants to end up in entertainment at the parks (she is planning on majoring in theatre). We're just one big happy Disney family.

Pretty good! Summer school started a few days ago, so that's pretty much taking up all my time.

Oooh. That doesn't sound too fun!

I'm still working on job hunting. I had another interview today and I have one Monday and one Tuesday.

Good luck!

Do you have any summer plans?

I leave for sleepaway camp in 3 weeks! It's my 8th year there, and my last as a camper. Most camps only go up to around 15, but mine goes up to 17!

I get home in early August after 6 weeks, and then I leave for Southern California on August 18th. We're going to the D23 Expo, touring USC and then going to Disneyland! :goodvibes

What are everyone's plans?

I'm just job hunting, baby-sitting, volunteering, and then going to WDW July 3rd to the 12th.

[r1009t]

I'm working as a camp counicilour/at a movie theatre but I'm leaving for London and Paris in 3 weeks! I'm really excited :goodvibes Plus my graduation party is this sunday, so it's a busy and exciting time.

Haha good! I've just been so busy that I can't get on here lol



What are everyone's plans?

Well, I already went to the beach for 2 weeks and I just finished driver's ed. But for the rest of the summer I have pretty much nothing to do. I'm gonna work VBS at my church in 2 weeks and on July 17th I'm going to see Britney Spears and Nicki Minaj in concert and I'm SO pumped about that. Lol you guys have no idea how much I love Britney Spears. :love: For the rest of the summer I'll probably just hangout around my house and chill with my friends :)

[keypooh90]

How is everyone?

In 12 (almost 11) days...I'll be in the Magic Kingdom!

My dream would be Magic Kingdom- Haunted Mansion. Haunted Mansion is my absolute favorite ride, ever. I could seriously ride it all day long. I love the theming and the music and everything about it. I have the entire ride speil completely memorized, from the stretch room to the end.

I was so upset when it was closed for rehab/refurb on one of my trips.

Honestly though, I'd be happy with anything but DHS. I just won't care for that park.

Magic Kingdom is my fave park and I LOVE the Haunted Mansion too! I think the outfits the cast members wear for it are kinda cool too :) And you get to paint your faces for Halloween there! Haha I know the stretch room part and the very ending of the ride. Lol I kinda like DHS but it just can't compare to MK or Epcot at all. The only thing I'd love to do at DHS is work Fantasmic (I wanna go full time in Entertainment when I'm old enough and hopefully going to college down there). Mainly because I'm mouse height and can you imagine how cool it would be to be Mickey in Fantasmic? :O

I think the best part of working at the haunted mansion is that you wouldn't have to smile 24/7:) You don't have to hide your bad days. People would just think that you're acting haha ;P

True. I would just die if I got to work at Haunted Mansion.

[Pancakes]

Haha it would be amazing! I'm starting to worry that I won't be able to be happy all the time. I've been struggling with being nice to my rude customers here. Sometimes I hate people >.< That's going to have to change big time though because I'm going to have to deal with 100x more people than I do here, but I'm willing :3

I'm sure it will be tough, but just remember in Disney's eyes, the guests are always right.

6 days until I'm back at WDW for our family vacay!

[Joanna71985]

Not always. If the guest does something extreme, management will support their CMs

[Gillibean405]

I would absolutely love to do a CP... I'm not quite sure what I would have to do or what I need to do to do it though. I'm also a music education/harp performance major so I don't know how this would work out. Does anyone have any experience with this or know someone that does?

[wdwislife]

Hey everyone! i just got back from sleepaway camp today.
How have your summers been?

[keypooh90]

Classes start in two weeks, so summer is winding down for me...and hopefully application time for Spring is coming soon too!

How was camp? Also, you're so close to D23! Please please please tell us how it goes! Have a wonderful time! :goodvibes

My summer is just about over. I'm leaving to go back to school on Monday, then I'm a counselor for the freshman orientation camp which is that Friday through the next Monday! I'm super stoked to be going back to school. I'm going insane in my house and just want to be back already!

[ipodluvr287]

I've already been in school for 3 weeks now. Junior year sucks, just shoot me lol. AP US History is killing me already, but AP Biology is going pretty good so far.

[ispyangie]

I just finished my first week of senior year. C: I can't wait until grad night at Disneyland, then after I graduate in June I can apply for the 2013 DCP!

[DirtyDiana]

I'm going absolutely crazy waiting for applications for Fall 2012! I wish I had done the program this fall or earlier in my college career. The wait is killing me! :scared1:

[keypooh90]

I am getting so ready to apply! I want to get in for the Spring 2012 CP more than anything!

Hey guys! I'm kind of new around here. I'm currently a senior in HS, and I really hope to either do Fall Advantage 2013 or Spring Advantage 2014. Undecided. I'm so glad there's a place like this to talk to other future CP's!

I am one step closer to my dreams of working for the Mouse!

I applied early today, around 1 pm EST. About 40 minutes later, I got a "thank you" email, and then about 45 minutes after that I got the invite for the WBI. I did that tonight and got a phone interview scheduled for Wednesday at 10:15 pm EST! :cool1:

Well plans changed, I originally had planned on applying for the college program spring of 2012, but now I have to take a UDRP recital in order to get into my upper level music courses in the spring so I'm going to apply for Fall 2012. If I don't make it, then Spring 2013 (y)

January is inching closer and closer and I can't wait to start applying. :D

That'll be me next year:banana: and then Im gonna wait another full year until cp :sad1: hopefully it'll go by fast hahah

[keypooh90]

It will fly by!!!

I've found my immediate roommate for the program and we think we've got our two apartment mates planned out. I've registered for my two classes as well and check in in 88 days!!!

This semester is flying by! I'm doing well in my classes and looking foward to Thanksgiving Break (My college gives us the whole week off!)

[IsabelleMisa]

sooooooo jealous of you. I'm planning on finishing a year of college before too, because I think the Fall season will be more fun because of all the holidays and such, and because I don't want to go to a semester of college and then be all, "peace out, going to Disney!" plus my sister said the majority of people she knew that did the program were older, like juniors or seniors in college.
Custodial!!
congrats!!!:cool1:


Oh and just an aside-I'm going to Disney in 2013 for Mardi Gras to march in the electrical parade again (!), and I realized last week that the week I will be there is when Valentine's day is! <3

[IsabelleMisa]

I know I couldn't wait until my junior or senior year it would kill me! Even waiting 1 year is going to be hard :laughing: and exactly why I want to do fall! your there for the best holidays!

Awesome!!!

I am getting so ready for January to be here!

I am taking 2 (or 3) online classes with my school while I am down there, so I'm going to be super busy. But this way, I won't have to worry about summer classes so I will have the option of extending for the summer.

[wdwislife]

How is everyone doing? :)

[keypooh90]

How is everyone doing? :)


I am doing really well! Only two weeks left until Thanksgiving Break. Then after break I have a week of classes, then finals and then Winter Break...check in is January 9th so it is getting closer and closer!

[Ajaz]

How is everyone doing? :)

Good! I feel like I'm finally getting used to my classes, although there's only about a month left in the semester... Oh well! I'm doing a lot of volunteer stuff this semester, and I'm part of a community service organization, which I absolutely LOVE. One of my friends told me the other day he got accepted for a summer internship, and at the end of the summer, the company is paying for all the interns to go to WDW! I'm super jealous. Besides that, I'm still deciding when the right time for me to do the CP is. I'm back and forth between Spring 2013 and Spring 2014 (which would be after graduation! That's scary to think about). It all depends on how involved I get in one of my organizations this next semester.

I am also looking forward to December 1st. I get to go see Demi Lovato in Concert! She is seriously my idol/role model. I've seen her in concert 4 other times before and have met her twice and cannot wait to see her again!

[wdwislife]

I was in Miami over the weekend visiting University of Miami, and I loved it! Being less than 4 hours away from WDW does not hurt...if I end up going there I definitely sense some weekend road trip getaways in my future haha :)

I've always said I had had to move anywhere it would be Georgia. I can just imagine everyone is like, little petite smiling girls with tons of freckles and peaches. I love peaches.

And again. You are so lucky. On the program in the spring. You gotta tell me all about it!

And I didn't know I was even excited about the food until my dad started talking about making sweet potato pie and bean bundles...:worship:

Yup, me too! I have work to do over the break, too, but I get the whole week off, which is so nice!

I think I've just got math to do. Ugh. It's just me and my mom home until Wednesday because my dad and brother went camping. :cool1:

That sounds nice! I have a ten page paper for History, Speech project for English, and an extra credit project for my political science class, and math work to do. ick.

But it's okay, because you'll be working in Disney soon! I'll send some go-getter attitude your way to help you through all that work. So what's your major?

Congrats!!!

After tomorrow, I'm officially on winter break!

Yay, yay, yay!

[Ajaz]

I officially have one week until winter break, which for me is an entire month! But first, I have a TON of homework, and most of it is due tomorrow. I've literally been working all day and am so bored. :surfweb:

These past few days I don't know what's been wrong with me, but I've started watching CP vlogs and reading blogs again like crazy. I kind of stopped doing that as much last year since I knew I wouldn't be applying for the program anytime soon, but this past week I've just really wanted to be in WDW! Probably so I wouldn't have to go to school, haha!

Anyway, I hope y'all are doing well! Good luck to all those taking finals, and also a happy 110th birthday to a Mr. Walt Disney! :cool1:

[keypooh90]

I have piles of stuff in our spare bedroom, but no actual packing yet. I'm driving down because my mom and I are going for a trip before my internship starts.

Yep, so they better get on to give us an update. Gotta have someone to live vicariously through.:rotfl:

I am here and settled!

I am slowly getting a hang of the Disney life and riding the buses. I checked in on the 16th (met my rooommate at Vista at 6:45 am), spent two ish hours at Casting, moved in, had a housing/welcome meeting, finished moving in, then went back to the resort with my mom for one more night. The next day (17th), we had a day off so I went to DTD and wal-mart, and finished getting organized. After that we went to dinner at Mara at AKL and tried to go to bed early. Traditions was the 18th and lasted from 8-12:30, then my roommate and I ran an errand and went to MK for the night, and rode Space Mountain, Pirates, saw Tiki Birds, saw MSEP, rode the last Haunted Mansion ride of the night, saw Wishes from the monorail and headed back home. We had the next day off and went to Wilderness Lodge and DHS and saw the Indiana show, Star Tours, and walked through shops. Yesterday was my core training and today was Discovery Day at Epcot. Tomorrow I go to work 7-3:30.

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Man, it really sounds like you're living the dream! I hope everything has been fun so far, though it sounds like it to me!

YAY! That sounds fantastically wonderful! Definitely keep us updated!

In other news (and I'm sure y'all are aware of this) but Fall/FA 2012 apps are out! I'm seriously considering applying as a backup if I don't get accepted as a camp counselor again.

Good luck...you should def apply.

It is an incredible experience. I finished my three days of training on Monday and was off today/yesterday. Today I went to AK for awhile and tomorrow I work Epcot evening EMH 4 to 12:30 am...yay!

Hey!

My name is Christina and I'm a freshman at UCONN. I'm hoping to do the CP for Spring or Fall of 2013. I am so so excited. I wish I could apply sooner but my life is too hectic. I'd love to work just about any position, except for maybe QSFB. I plan to utilize my CP as a stepping stone to a PI and hopefully a career with Disney. However; my only work experience is filing in an office and such. I hope this won't hurt my chances. Well, it's great to meet you all! Have a magical day! ;)

Aww, another poor soul who has a couple years to wait.:( That's awesome that you're looking for a lifelong career with the Mouse, my only reason not to is because I wouldn't want to have to move to work onsite. I don't think having a job matters in the slightest- I've seen lots of people who have never been employed in their life get in. Nice to meet you!

[Ajaz]

This board has died! :(

I've been super wrapped up in school and my organizations this semester, but that doesn't mean I've forgotten about y'all! I'm officially done with my sophomore year of college, which is both exciting and terrifying.

I've decided I'm finally applying for the CP for Spring or SA 2013! It's been a long process trying to sort out my life and figuring out where the CP would fit in best. HOPEFULLY I get accepted, but if not, I will definitely be applying for Fall 2013! I'm super nervous and excited and just can't wait until August so I can finally apply! I can't believe it's already been three years since I found out about the program and that my time to apply is almost here!

Basically I'm just super excited and wanted to fill y'all in on my life! Update me on what's going on with you and your Disney plans :goodvibes

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Aww hey! Nothing much is going on for me on the CP front, obviously...but I have two friends that will be applying in a semester! I'm so excited to get to have someone who can show me the ropes when it comes time for me to apply.

And you KNOW you have to keep us up to date with your application! Awesome that someone's finally "graduating" from our little CP 201 club!

[HFBelle]

Ahh, here is the infamous thread! I'm a Junior in High school, and plan on doing the CP in Fall of 2015! I would love to be a character performer, BBB Hostess, A spiel attraction(ESPECIALLY the Great Movie Ride!), or a character attendant! I think it would be great to continue a career there. I'm going to be a musical theatre major, so Disney is definitely in my thoughts for future careers. Though, I still have no idea what I want to do. What I love about Disney is that it provides a special magic, and I'm a girl with a lot of big dreams, so I always feel such a happiness not only when I'm in the parks, but watching videos, reading articles, and seeing how Disney magic can impact a persons life. I love reading the experiences that people in the college program have had, and I can't wait to hopefully experience it myself in a few years!:)

I was actually thinking about you all a few days ago! My program has gone by so, so quickly. I have been here for 3.5 months and have 3.5 months left to go (I was able to extend my program and will be here until August 3rd, then it's back to school!) I am loving it and have plans to do another program after graduation, so soon it will be back to dreaming and planning for the future.

Yeah you forgot to come back and update us! Nice to see you again!

When will you graduate?! By that time I might be doing it too;)

[wdwislife]

Hello my lovely future (and current) CPers!

I will be graduating from high school in a little over a month, and then before I know it I'll officially be eligible for the CP! I'm planning on either FA 2013 or 2014. (I don't want to do a Spring CP because I'm going to college in New Orleans and I want to be there for Mardi Gras!) Of course I would much prefer 2013, but we'll see what my schedule will allow.

Glad to talk to you guys again!

GOING TO COLLEGE IN NEW ORLEANS...WHERE?!?!?!?!? (I'm thinking maybe like UNO or Xavier) and my friend is planning on Fall 2013! They graduate in a week. Funny that you want to do Fall to be here for Mardi Gras...that's always the week I leave to visit Disney World!

[wdwislife]

I'm going to Tulane! Haha as a native Mardi Gras must be old news to you, sort of like me going to Times Square as a New Yorker. I'm so excited to be in New Orleans for it next year though!

Basically when I start there in August I'm meeting with my advisor right away to work out the best time for me to do the program! And I'll definitely attend the campus presentation for Spring 2013 even though I won't be applying for it :)

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Aww well you're adorable! I forgot all about Tulane...that's a popular one for the CP. You have to tell us all how it goes too- especially me, since it will be a local school!

[keypooh90]

Yeah you forgot to come back and update us! Nice to see you again!

When will you graduate?! By that time I might be doing it too;)

Aah, sorry for forgetting you all! Things have just been hectic. I have worked 40 hour work weeks for the past three weeks! My family is coming down to visit me in 8 days and then they will be back for another visit July 1 to 10th. I am actually ending my program on July 29th, instead of August 3rd and coming home July 30th, so I'll have two ish weeks at home before classes begin again.

And I'll graduate in 2013 (summer) or Fall, so my program will be Spring 2014most likely.

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Well it sounds like you're having lots of fun and I'm glad they have kept you nice and busy!

And man, so close! Fall 2015 hopefully, for me.

[almartinez1219]

Hi! My name is Alexandra and I'm graduating next spring so I'm looking to do the Fall Advantage 2013 CP! I'm so excited to apply but the time is going so slow until January :goodvibes

[boyob13]

Felt like I should post here as well. ^_^

I'm currently a junior, and hope to go down for either Spring or Fall 2014 CP.
