Disney Internship College Program

[AuntieSkadoo]

Ive been looking online for a list of participating schools that allow you to intern in Disney but Im not having any luck..Is it any school, that you just have to apply and see if you are accepted?

does anyone know where I could find it, or if you've done the program, which school you used? Or how you liked it?

I'm almost positive that any school will allow you to apply; the hard part is finding the school that will accept the credits from the program.

I go to Cornell Univ. and they wouldn't accept the credit, so I'm going through Central Michigan University to get some credit for what I'm doing (although Cornell still won't accept it). Here's a list of schools that will give you credit that you can (usually) transfer your credits from:

• 
  
  ​
• Central Michigan University
  
  ​
• Tulane University
  
  ​
• Purdue University
  
  ​
• Onondaga Community College
  
  ​
• Montclair State University
  
  ​
• Mesa Community College

The full information is on the DCP website under education though.

I did mine through Arizona State University and got 6 credits for the internship but I know a lot of people who went and took the semester off completely.

For the program, it was a great experience. The pay sucks, but you have to go into remembering you are there for the experience and not the weekly paychecks. Overall, it was something I'll never forget, and encourage you to apply to do it as well.

the last few times Ive gone to Disney Ive seen people crying because their internship is either over, or will be soon.
It seems like it would be an amazing experience...I just wasnt sure if you had to have a specific major to apply.
