College Program Questions Thread Pt 2

I'm back with a costuming question. How many uniforms/costumes are cast members typically issued? It just dawned on me that if you get one or two its going to require a lot of washing every week!

You are allowed to take 5 of the same pieces out. So you can get five shirts, 5 pants, or whatever (skirts, vests). And when you turn some of your costumes in, you are allowed to get new ones, so you don;t have to wash all the time (even though i did) The reason i washed my own is because a lot of people wore the same sized pants as i did, and i didn't want to risk the chance of not having a pair of pants.
If you have a hat or belt, you get only one of those.

You can take out up to 5 shirts, pants, ect. You can only take out one hat, belt, and stuff like that. Then when something gets dirty you can return it and get a new one (so you don't have to clean it if you don't want to).

Also, I don't know if it has changed (I was told it was going to) but character attendants (and performers for obvious reasons) don't do the costume take-out. However, I heard that attendants were going to be (if not already).

I am a former CP who worked at Big Thunder Mountain and Country Bears then moved onto MK Guest Relations and VIP tours. I would love to discuss anything about the experiences I had over 5 years. I have some good stories!

That's awsome! If I wasn't such a wuss I would consider going for GR someday (I would love to do the tours, like KTTK and Backstage Magic) but you have to have nerves of steel (which I don't).

im trying to send a private message but it keeps telling me error_no_postcount_pm or something like that. does that mean i need to post more? also i'm confused about housing. i've read that some people pick which apartment they want to live in when i thought you automatically got placed in one or the other depending on whether you were 21 or not?

You do have a bit of a choice; however, it really depends on if what you want is open. On my first program I really wanted a 3 bedroom in Chatham, but when I arrived they only had 2 bedrooms and 4 bedrooms open. If you do not care where you go then they will put you in what is open, but if there is a complex that you want to be in ask for that complex first then see what is available from there.

Nope, you are asked about preferences when you check-in. However, if you are under 21 you will automatically be placed in a wellness apartment. But there are wellness ones at both Chatham and Vista. So that won't make a difference.

thanks for clearing that up for me! there's just so much to take in and learn about! i'm sure a lot of it will come once i get there and go through the process.

I've got a question...what is nearby Chatham Square? I know what's near Vista, but I'd prefer to live in Chatham ^^.

Well, nothing is right next door to Chatham the way Vista has Walgreens and Wendys. But there is a Publix and shopping center about 10 minutes away by walking.

Thanks =D. I'd prefer to be closer to things but I don't want to be in the partying complex lol.
Another question, where would I find the address for Chatham? I can't find it anywhere >.> lol.
