Our contract for VWL was submitted on Saturday to Disney. We are looking to go on vacation the first week in Dec: the 5-12 or something like that.

Is it possible to go ahead and book this as a studio at the villas and then, when I get all the information related to my DVC membership switch it to a points reservation?

I'm really worried about the room type I want not being available at the end of April when I can finally book! :sad1:
 
No you cannot. Points rooms and cash rooms come from 2 different inventories - you can't change a cash room to a points room (or vice versa).

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you have every right to be worried about VWL in early Dec.
The good news is you will be just inside the 7 month window so you can waitlist and hope for 7 month moves.
No, they won't let you book on cash and then slide over to points. They would wreak havoc on availability.
 
And most likely the rooms are already booked up. People make those reservation 11months to the day.
