I also received my rejection email earlier. I focused on the DCL aspect this time (5 cruises in a little over a year) and had hoped for at least round two, but alas, it's simply not meant to be!
I got my rejection email today too! This was the first year I applied. I have to admit that I did feel a little bad about not making the cut.
To make it worse, I of course read a thread on here about all the people who made it to round 2. I am happy for them and wish them good luck. But it just sucks to be rejected.
So thank you for this thread. It makes me feel better to know that I am not alone
I applied for the first time and was rejected as well. Honestly it was for the best since my daughter is planning to apply for the Fall DCP and from the questions it sounds like no one in your family can be a Disney employee.
