Hello everyone,

I am starting my first year of University next year and I am Canadian. I really want to work at Disney during the summer (April-August) but I am not sure how it works since I am Canadian. I would love to work Attractions or Merch. All I really know is about the 3 months which would be great for me. I am not really looking into working at the Canadian pavilion at Epcot.
If you had any info about how to apply and any personal experiences would be amazing.

Did you keep the same jobs for the entire time?
Sharing a room/residence reviews?

TIA
