College Program Questions Thread Pt 2

Are toasters one of the provided appliances in the kitchens in the apartments? Or am I going to have to buy one?

Toasters aren't included, be sure to get your own.

A little OT, but if I could fly JetBlue (or the new startup Virgin America) everywhere, I would. Their prices are usually really great, and you can't beat their in-flight features.

I totally agree. Jetblue is awsome!

I was wondering if the classes were worth taking while on the program. Will you have any free time at all? If they're worth it, which do you feel were the most beneficial?
Thanks!

I took Hospitality Management my first CP. It was really interesting.

I finally got my letter!! 5 weeks and 2 days after my interview. And luckily I got my 1st choice of BBB Hostess. SO I was curious if anyone on the boards had done it for their CP. What was it like, what were your primary jobs (did you actually get to do the makeup and such or were you mostly on the computer etc.) If anyone knows anything about it let me know! Thanks!!

Congrats!! That is awsome. They actually just added it to the CP roles for Spring 2008. However, there is someone currently down on the CP now, doing BBB. I will find the link for you.

They are not included. You would have to bring one down, or buy one in FL.

Does anyone know what the rejection letters look like? Do they come in the same purple folder that the Acceptance letters come in? I ask because my girlfriend is at work, but her sister texted me to tell me she got a letter from Disney! One of the corners of the envelope is ripped and she can see the purple folder that my acceptance letter came in. We can't get a hold of her since she is a waitress and can't have her phone. Ahhh!!!

I have never seen the rejection letter. But I would say most likely not. I have my fingers crossed for her.

Big envelopes with folders are generally very good.

Standard letter sized envelopes aren't nearly as swell.

If your girlfriend has a large envelope with a purple folder inside, chances are very good that it is a role offer!

I'd say that's a good thing, my rejection letter was just a standard letter. I'm still waiting on my official acceptance letter though.

i know this is about the college program but i'm wondering if anyone could answer a question about career start..

can i just use a college recommendation letter for my career start application?

So going to be down at Disney from May-January I already know that things are going to be crazy around the holidays, and that there's special parties for Halloween and Christmas. Does Disney do extra things or special events for 4th of July or Thanksgiving? I haven't heard/read anything, but it seems surprising that Disney would be able to pass up to excuse to celebrate. Anybody know about extra holiday celebrations?

No. There are no special parties for either. However, there are really awsome fireworks for the 4th.

Anything that can vouch for your character and work ethic should probably be sufficient.

Well the recruiter told me I wasn't eligable because I wasn't turning 18 before May 1, My b-bay is June 14. I'll be 18 then.
