Where did you work?

If you want, you can PM me. That way we don't fill up the thread with unrelated info.

Im brand new to these forums and I have a question I'm hoping can be answered through this thread.

I will be graduating from highschool this June, and attending my first semester of college as a business major from Aug-Dec. I would like to apply for the spring 2011 CP as a lifeguard. First off, is this a hard position to obtain?

Also, I know it says we have to of completed atleast one semester of college to be accepted, but could I still apply while going through my first semester? In example lets say August of this year?

Any answers are greatly appreciated!

I don't know about the life guard situation. But you can apply before you finish your first semester as long as when you go you have one completed. That's how I assume it is. For the Career Start program you have to be 18 but you can apply at 17 just be 18 when you get there. I imagine it's the same in this case.

Okay, so I can apply for the Spring 2011 CP as soon as I graduate highschool then?

No, you'd have to wait until the application for the spring 2011 program comes out, which will be around late August or early September.

Oh okay, thank you so much!

It could be either, recent events have streamlined previously-seperate Internship Recruiting efforts at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort into a single organization supporting both domestic resorts.

Since you haven't had your Florida-Site interview as of yet, I would assume it would be about your California-Site application.

I GOT ACCEPTED!!!

Disneyland for QFSB as a cashier the lady said. it wasn't one of my choices at all actually, but i still have to figure out if I wanna pay the $836 fee... there goes my car D: lol.

and I guess disneyland only has one complex? are we still able to choose room-mates?

 

[Kara1392]

I have a question about housing. I'm sorry if this question has been answered, my computer has been pretty slow lately and the search isn't loading right.

Lets say I wanted a one bedroom at Patterson Court, would I just have to arrive at like 8am for the check-in with my roommate, and request it? Or do they put you somewhere already and you just find out when you check-in?

You would get there at 8 am (or earlier) with your roommate (unless you did roommate matching, in which case only one of you needs to go), and state your housing preference, ie, Patterson. They then tell you what apartment sizes are available, and you pick.

Disneyland has a much larger deposit than WDW - I don't know why, but they do.

Oh okay thanks What is roommate matching?

If you meet someone you want to room with, you can enter their ID number into the Disney website (if you're Fall, it hasn't opened yet, FA has), and then they enter yours. And then you're assigned to each other. But you both have to be over or under 21, otherwise I don't believe it allows you to be assigned. If you were a 21+ person who wanted to be wellness to room with someone under 21, then you would have to show up together and say that.

Just checking, but because I'll be twenty during check-in I have to be in a wellness apartment correct? What happens when I turn twenty-one during the program? Can I stay in the wellness? I can have a drink at dinner or something but just not bring it into the room right?

I turned 21 on my program. I stayed in my apartment. You aren't forced to leave, but you can if you want.

You can't have any alcohol in the apartment, but it doesn't matter what you do when you aren't there.

If I get accepted for spring 2011, that's going to happen to me too.

Haha wow, so many of us!

Thank you, that's what I thought.

Hooray for The Food and Wine Festival occurring two days after I turn 21!!!
(probably the only time I'll drink while there, but convenient, happy birthday to me!)
