Fall or Spring?

Hey, I was planning on applying for the college program, but I wanted to know when to do it. I know time is running out for applying to the Fall program next year, so I need to know if there is any distinct advantage to being in the fall or the spring as soon as possible. Thanks!

My preference is Fall.

But only if you're ok with being away from your family for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

But other than that, it is an amazing experience.

You get the Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Parties at MK... and everything else fun that goes along with that festive time of year. Orlando offers fun stuff too, like Universal's Halloween Horror Nights you can do on a night off.

Food and Wine Festival, which is obviously amazing - at Epcot. They also have good bands that come and play for that.

Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parties at MK, Dancing Lights at DHS, Candlelight Processional at Epcot, etc. etc. etc. during the holiday season. And seeing the castle decorated for Christmas is truly magical.

And the weather is still nice. I was laying out at the pool in December.

Thanks for the advice. I went ahead and scheduled a phone interview for next Friday, so hopefully I get in in the Fall. I just am not looking forward to the two week wait for the call and then the wait after that!
