Where to begin... My favorite right now is Boston University, but I change my mind every 5 seconds. Where are you going to school?

I've heard Boston is a good school. And I'm going to Texas A&M!

All this AP talk makes me dread next year when I take AP World History. Its the only AP class sophomores can take, so I'm doing it. I've heard the teacher is hard and he makes you write an essay every weekend about what you learned in class that week and the tests aren't multiple choice, they're fill in the blank. Oh well. I'm going to try my best. Do you guys think AP classes are hard?

I took AP World History. I had a really awesome teacher, but she didn't actually teach much. She talked more about her life and random stuff that had nothing to do with the class, haha. So pretty much all the studying was left up to me. I got a 3 on that test, which I'm happy with. And as long as you don't get behind in the material, and actually put forth effort, AP classes aren't too bad. Is this going to be your first one?
Although I think it's weird that your teacher would have you do fill in the blank tests, when the AP test is multiple choice. Unless he's preparing you for the essay portion?

Whoops...

Yep. My first one. I'm so nervous. I guess he's preparing us for the essay portion. I think fill in the blank is dumb, but whatever.

Bella and wdwislife I watched those videos and they were very interesting! I haven't really thought about it much before, but how much makeup do face characters wear?

Shelbs are you going to do career start? If your talking about the regular cp you have to be in college for a semester before you do it.

Tammy's videos that are princess inspired are actually pretty accurate with what the characters wear, I believe. So it's just basic makeup- but with specific colors and such.

yeah i am talking about career start. but ok heres my question: im enrolled in both college and high school this coming year ( my junior year) because im taking a ton of dual enrollment classes where ,of course, you get college credit. ok so a lot of people who have taken these classes before walk into college with a semester under their belt. some even go in to college and are counted as sophmores in college. so would that mean if i came in with a semester or two already done, i could apply for CP? or do i still have to do CS first?? i need help lol.

I remember reading somewhere about dual enrollment. I'm pretty sure it said that dual enrollment doesn't actually count for a semester of college, and you have to have actually graduated high school, and been enrolled for one semester in college before doing the CP. I'm not sure how dual would work in regards to Career Start, but I know I read it somewhere. Probably on the CP/CS website...but it's not loading for me right now.
This post wasn't as helpful as I hoped it would be.

You're correct- this is copied from the FAQ section of the CP website:

- Students who have not yet graduated from high school but have dual enrollment with a college are not eligible to apply.

Thanks! That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. For whatever reason, the website wouldn't load for me last night.

[shelbs]

You're correct- this is copied from the FAQ section of the CP website:

wait..ok sorry if im sounding stupid right now but it said if you have dual enrollment and havent graduated high school you cant do it. i know i cant do it right now. im talking about when i graduate hs in 2012. and when i have all of the dual enrollment under my belt. or do i still have to do an actual semester at my college before i can do cp??? again sorry if i sound stupid. im just confused.

Here's a more in depth explanation I found on the CP website:

I'm still in high school, but have dual enrollment with a college. Can I apply?
In order to be eligible to apply for the Disney College Program, applicants must have graduated high school or completed a GED prior to submitting an application. Applicants must also complete a full semester of college prior to participating in our program (note that individual colleges may have additional requirements for participation). Students who have not yet graduated from high school but have dual enrollment with a college are not eligible to apply for the Disney College Program until they have graduated high school and subsequently completed a full semester of college enrollment. Please note that dual enrollment students who graduate high school in the near future may be eligible to apply for the Disney CareerStart Program.

So I believe it's saying that even though you have graduated and have dual enrollment, you still have to have completed a full semester. This kind of question is probably better answered by a recruiter, though- I'm just going off of what can be found on www.wdwcollegeprogram.com

I just heard that my friend who did the CP back in fall 2008 is returning for the summer alumni this year! I'm so happy for him!
When he did his first CP he was the Kilimanjaro safari driver, and LOVED it! I know him from theater, and safari is a great ride for aspiring actors since it is a spiel ride. I'm not sure what he's doing there this time.
