Here's a question for you guys: I am flying into Orlando in a couple of weeks on Allegiant, will be staying at an All Star Resort, and plan on using Magical Express. I have a couple of friends who will be flying in from other parts of the country, and we will all be sharing a room. Can you...

This sounds like exactly my situation--Merch, considering an Exploration Class, but not wanting to limit my hours. In the acceptance folder, it said something about only being scheduled to work 30-45 hours during class sessions, or up to 50 if you're not taking classes. Not a ton of...

I'm bringing my printer. From what I've seen, there's a desk in the living room, so I'll just set it up there. As far as what else I'm packing? Everything, it seems like. lol.

I just read on someone's blog, who is arriving about the same time as me, that she had found out she was probably going to be working at Animal Kingdom. How did she find out so early? I thought we wouldn't learn anything about our work location until after check-in.

It says that you can get up to 40% (or 50%) on the hotel reservations, and I know that it can vary depending on the season. But are these discount amounts more the exception or the rule?

Another August 12th-er here! :)

I was accepted for Merchandise for the upcoming Fall season, and when I was asked this question, I said I would check other stores on property, but I also said that, as a last resort, I would give them the number for the hotline where people can order park merchandise from home or the address...

Just wanted to let everyone know that my blog has moved! It is now located at www.happiestinternship.wordpress.com. The move from Blogger lead to a much improved site, so please check it out! The new link can also be found in my sig.

In addition to my earlier question (see #6): I know that you can get credit for the Collegiate courses--can you get credit for the Exploration and Professional classes? Also, when do you sign up for classes?

Someone asked me about renters' insurance today--I hadn't even thought about it! The Disney Website says: Liability All Cast Members living in our complexes are strongly encouraged to secure renter's insurance. The College Housing Department can point you in the right direction, or you can...

I can't get credit for any of the classes, but I'm still considering taking one. Do you guys think it's worth it? I don't want to get too busy down there, but I also think the classes would be a neat experience! If I started the class and got overwhelmed and dropped it, that wouldn't show...

That's kind of what I thought, too! Plus, at least this way I'll get to base my roommate choice on some sort of immediate first impression kind of thing, instead of it being totally random.

No, you were very helpful! Now that I know one of the sessions starts at 8:00, I definitely will need to either drop my mom off very, very early or try to arrange something with the College Program people. Does anyone know who I should try to contact about this? Thanks!

My mom is driving down with me to Orlando, and then flying back a couple of days later, so I will need to take her to the Sanford airport. I check in on Wednesday, and the only flights available are really early (7:30-ish) on Friday or Saturday morning. According to the CP website, Traditions...

Lilbugger, I'm checking in on Aug 12th and it's giving me trouble, too. One day it will say that my arrival date is ineligible, another it will say that they just haven't matched me up yet. For a while it said that I had a roommate, but now it's saying I don't. So I don't know if she opted...

Most of the recommendations have focused on location, but I'm driving down, and so a 10 or 15 minute drive from my hotel over to Vista wouldn't really bother me. Anyone have any specific recommendations based solely on cheapness/cleanliness ratio? I just want to find the best value.

I have a blog, too! I haven't done the program yet, but I'm going in August, so you can follow along in real time as you're looking forward to your own program! :) The link is in my sig.

Update--I now have a roommate! I guess tech support fixed the problem!

I'm not really worried about the style--last time I went to WDW, I wore ballet flats and flip flops all day every day and was completely fine. I'm just worried that they won't like brightly colored shoes. But I don't recall seeing anything specific about the colors of dress shoes allowed.

I was wondering about the phrase "in good taste". I have a pair of very comfortable ballet flats that I wear to work all of the time (I have to dress "business casual", but Disney's idea of "business casual" seems to be much more strict.). They are cute, clean, stylish...and a very pretty...
