How About Some Introductions?

[Salukfan]

Aloyha, everyone! I'm Samantha, a 20-year old junior at La Roche College in PA. I just transferred to La Roche from a community college, so I'm adjusting to life in a dorm. Verrrrrry interesting. I'm interested in doing the College Program. I interviewed last week, but I'm not sure how well it went. Ah well--if it went as badly as I think it did, I'll just have to apply again for fall!

I'm a huge fan of Disney's Aladdin, including all three films and the TV series. My screenname refers to a character from the third Aladdin film, but since there are people in the Aladdin fandom who can't identify Sa'luk, I don't expect anyone else to. I'm also semi-obsessed with all 4 Lilo and Stitch films, and the TV series that goes with them. I've never been to a Disney park, but hopefully that will change with the CP!

After a significant amount of lurking I've decided to introduce myself!

My name is Brittany. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Vermont and my major is Wildlife and Fisheries Biology. I still haven't decided if I want to study wildlife or fisheries yet! I'm 19 years old, and when I'm not at school I live with my family in Columbus, Ohio. I'm going to apply for the Spring CP, and I'm very excited about it. I applied and was accepted last year for Fall '06, but unfortunately had to decline. So hopefully everything goes well and I will be in Disney next semester instead of at school here!

Hi, I am Rita. I am 18 and a freshman at Cedar Crest College. It's a liberal arts college in southeastern Pennsylvania. I am majoring in criminal justice and biochemistry/chemistry with a concentration in forensics.

I have been to Disney five times and I am going again this summer. If I could I would go every year but now with college and all the loans and multiple books I do not have enough money or time to go every year.

I want to do the College Program sometime. I am not sure when I am able to do it because I would also like to be an International Resident Assisant here at school. Hey I can take a class for free if I do it and any free class here is excellent.

Just wanted to introduce myself and say hi.

Welcome to DISboards, Rita!

Hello, everyone! I'm Sandra, and I am an older (not old) student as well. I'll be 30 in April. I'm attempting a BA in Communication to add some depth to my BBA in Marketing and Management. I have always admired Disney, and I still kick myself for not doing the CP when I was college the first time. But thank God for second chances!

I got accepted and my role is Operations, arriving Jan. 7th to check in on the 8th. Although some ppl I've come in contact with aren't thrilled about me doing this, I do have some strong support, and I'm just going to take that and run with it.

Hello to everyone and, who knows, maybe we could meet up sometime in January!

hey everyone,
i've been around for a while but figured i should formally introduce myself. my name is christina. i'm from nyc, living at home and going to school at st johns university (i'm a freshman). i'm in their pharmacy program, which is a six year program, and because of it, there is no way i can miss a semester to go do disney's college program but that's alright i guess, i'll manage to survive with a couple trips down there during my vacations

i've been to disney about 7 times, starting when i was less than a year old! now, i'm basically a disney fanatic. my favorite character is the head cheese mickey mouse, and i make it a point to go visit 'the boss' every time i'm down at wdw. my favorite movie would be the great mouse detective, but i love the soundtracks to all the movies- half the magic of disney is in the music! my favorite park is MK.

i'm trying to plan a trip down to wdw for sometime in may, hopefully that will work out for me. and who knows? maybe i'll see some of you there

Hi, I joined the forum ages ago but I've been very busy over the summer.
I'm starting a business called mycollegeincome . It's basically my wife and I using our marketing experience and the economies of scale to make some decent advertising income available to college students. I'm very curious about whether I'll get dissed here. I've been reading up on how people get angry when presented with a financial opportunity. This reaction is mostly based on fear. I think in some respects people in college are facing fear of failure on an almost daily basis. I've been there. All my best to everyone on here and good luck with college.

It seems like I'm just out of the average age too. The majority of the people I've seen are 18-21. And I'll only be 24 when I start in Jan! But I don't think it matters when you do it, just how you make it while you're there. If I don't get have a good audition I hope to get operations.

Hi everyone!

I just thought i would introduce myself too, i've been on the boards for a while now, and looked around the college board, but never posted anything in it yet!

Anyways, my name is Crissa and i am 20 years old from Minnesota. I attend a community college in Bloomington, MN and i am majoring in business marketing and hospitality management (after changing my mind a million times). I love traveling, planning, being organized and i have a huge love for Disney.

Im thinking about... no... im STRONGLY thinking about the CP for fall 2007 or spring 2008, i know it's a ways away, but i want to bump up my gpa and get some more classes under my bealt before i go down!

so yeah, that's pretty much me in a nutshell!

You're right. I also think that the fear comes from companies that claim that they can help students earn some extra cash, but require an investment too expensive for students to afford.

We don't ask for any investment. After a little bit of setup work a student could have around $150 a month coming to them in passive income, it's not a get rich scheme, but it's decent spending money. Anyway, I'm not going to post any more about it, like I said people get angry.

Hey all! I’m Amy and I’m in my second year at St. Mary’s University. I’m working towards a BA, doing a double major in English and Religious Studies. I’ve only been to WDW twice, but I’m hooked already. I’m interested in the CP, but I couldn’t stay in Orlando for an entire winter just because I wouldn’t get to ski at all.

I’ve loved Disney since I was a kid (who hasn’t?) and when I finally got to go it was very surreal. I can’t decide which park is my favourite, Epcot or the Magic Kingdom. I love both, but I think they are in major need of upgrading the Canadian pavilion.

Anyway, I think it’s great there’s a college board on here. Hopefully I’ll be able to find some time to browse around instead of writing papers all the time!
