Spring Advantage 2013?

[c0pperboom]

I saw this on the list of options, what exactly does the job entail? I might be really interested, but I wanted to know more about it.

It's a ticket sales position! A Vacation Planner is the person at the booths at the park entrances selling park tickets and media. You have monthly/weekly goals you have to meet for sales, but I've heard from friends who are VP's now that they are not difficult to reach!

Hey guys! My name is Lauren and I did the Fall 2010 College Program in Attractions at The Great Movie Ride, and will be applying to go back for Spring/Spring Advantage 2013! I am a current Campus Rep for my college. My top three roles are Vacation Planner, Attractions and Merchandise! I will be graduating in December, so I hope this will lead me into a Professional Internship in communications!

I worked there fall 10 too!

Hi everyone! I'm Casey. I plan on applying for Spring 2013 I don't know whether i'm going to extend it or not, but I have time to figure it out. I just saw this thread and decided to join. Would love to chat more with everyone and make friends. I absolutely love Disney and i've educated myself on the program for about 2 years now... so this is my time to shine!

Welcome, Casey!!

Question for everyone: I'm 25...Are there any other 'older' CP'er's out there for Spring 2013? I'd feel like I'd relate a bit more when it comes to picking roommates!!

Hi Casey! I'm 23 haha, if you consider that an 'older' CP!

 

[jprice11]

I'll also be 23 when the Spring 2013 program starts. Don't know if that's what you mean by older

 

[MelissaMouse]

Yes, that is what I meant! I guess I meant 22/23 or older. It's nice to see others on here!! Hi! Let's make sure we stay in touch, Lets get to know each other more!

 

[psherman42]

If I get accepted, I'll be turning 23 while I'm down there.

 

[MelissaMouse]

woohoooo!!

 

[JuliaJu]

I'm 21 years old, turning 22 during the Spring Adv. Program! I am a first timer, but really interested in applying! I am graduating from college in December and have some time off before grad school...it seems like the perfect timing! Hope to get to know some of you other hopefuls !

 

[yohoadisneylifeforme]

Can September get here already so we can all start applying??? PLEASE? Haha! It's so good seeing just how many of us are out there for 2013...means we can all get to know each other beforehand, make tons of friends, plan out all kinds of activities and share what roles we want to have! So exciting!! I really want Character Performer or Attendant...I'm graduating in December, only a few months away!! And then hopefully, it's off to Florida I go!

Hey everyone! My name is Angelique and I am a Spring/Spring Advantage hopeful. I was a CP in '08 as a Slide Op at Typhoon Lagoon and I did the Summer Alumni '09 at Mission: Space.

I just graduated college so I think I am safe when it comes to applying for the CP but I am waiting on an e-mail to confirm this.

Anyway, I am married and my husband and I have an 8 month old baby girl. I know it seems crazy to want to do the CP married with a baby but Disney is where I want to work and to do that I must start at the bottom again.

I wish everyone good luck with applying!

 

[Ajaz]

Howdy! I'm Amy, I'm 20, and I'm from Texas! I've been researching the CP for nearly 3 years now and I think it's finally my time to apply! I'm willing to do just about anything, but my top roles are entertainment (although I know how competitive it is to get), character attendant, attractions, merchandise, BBB, photopass... I'm not picky! I can't wait to get to know y'all more as we get closer to applications

Hi Spring and Spring Advantage 2013 Hopefuls...

My name is Jason and I am going to be a junior sport management major at Ithaca College (Alma Mater of Bob Iger, Walt Disney Company CEO). I am applying for Spring Advantage 2013 at WDW and looking to do Attractions (my top choices are Soarin' and The Haunted Mansion), Vacation Planner, or Main Entrance Operations. Also, I will be looking to switch gears during the month of March and hopefully intern with the Atlanta Braves during their Spring Training at Wide World of Sports. I am so excited to be applying to such a wonderful program and I hope to be a part of the magic-making for 7 months. When will September get here so applications can open?

i'll be 25 in two weeks and HOPEFULLY i'm applying for spring 2013. i think i can, anyway. i just have to get back enrolled in college and it'll be a go. i did the spring 07 cp!

Also, I will be looking to switch gears during the month of March and hopefully intern with the Atlanta Braves during their Spring Training at Wide World of Sports.

that's where i did my program and i was not a baseball fan at all, going into it, but i came out an atl braves fan!

I am a diehard Red Sox fan, so it wouldn't be a problem for me since the Braves are in the National League. I was wondering how you go about getting that portion of the internship and how it would affect your current role and apartment rent.
