Completely and totally agree with this:
The Walt Disney World College Program was without a doubt the most influential experience of my life. I would not be as succesful professionally as I currently am [snip] I befriended and worked with College Students from all around the World and 15 years larter I am still friends with many of the friends I made. I learned and grew through Culture shock which led to my own world view expanding in turn changing my entire outlook on life and on business. The core values I learned by working for Disney stick with me to this day and drive almost every business realted decision that I make.
My husband and I have talked/joked that if anything were to happen to him and my daughter, I'd enroll in college again solely to apply to do the college program again. It truly is life changing. You will learn more about yourself in that one short semester than your other years at college, if your experience was anything like mine. And I grew a lot in college! That just says how much the program can grow you. And I highly recommend the WDW College Program. Through it, you will be living and working with people all over the country, but also have the experience to interact daily with international cast members. While this is also an opportunity at
Disneyland, you would be less likely to meet and work with as many internationals as you will at WDW. When you graduate college and are able to tell a potential future employer that you interned at a fortune 500 company where you worked closely with international employees and interacted with people from all different cultures and backgrounds, it will look incredibly impressive. Plus,j ust like a trip to WDW is more engulfing than Disneyland, from those I have spoken to, it sounds like the internships are the same way. Those I know who did the Disneyland program enjoyed it very much, but they felt more like it was a job that they did during the day and then went back to "the real world" at night. At WDW, we always felt like we were part of the program, even when back in our apartments. WDW also has so many opportunities for the advanced internship. So, in my opinion, WDW is the way to go.
Oh, but Chatham Square is totally the place to live. Not Vista Way.
Vista Way 4 Life!!!!!
