I've posted this on the College Program Parents Thread, but I don't think it gets as much traffic. I've been reading around on the CP Board, but can't seem to find out what I need to know. I hope someone can help us!!

Our situation:

My DD20 just completed her Associates Degree in Music at the local community college this summer. This fall she couldn't decide what to do, so she didn't enroll anywhere. After some career testing/counseling, she had decided to go on to a four year school in the spring to continue her education. However, when we contacted a couple of the schools she was interested in, they said their scholarship money wouldn't be available for spring - she would have to wait until fall (for the department scholarships - not Phi Theta Kappa, etc.)

So, she has now decided to apply for the Spring 2010 CP at WDW. (Very weird, that she and I thought of it on the same day, unbeknownst to the other!) From what I can gather, you have to be enrolled either FT or PT to enroll in the CP. And it's too late to apply for full term fall semester courses.

Our questions:

1. Would she be eligible to apply for Spring 2010 CP if she enrolled in a Term II Internet Class at the community college that she just received her degree from (which begins Oct. 8)? There is a college presentation on that date at another university.

2. Does she have to be enrolled anywhere for Spring 2010 (college wise) or can she wait until Fall 2010 to continue her studies at a new college?

3. Can we apply for the CP now (after enrolling for the Term II class) even though the class hasn't started yet?

I know our situation is convoluted - please let me know if I need to clarify anything! Any help anyone could give us would be most appreciated!!
 
I think she would be okay as long as she was doing the internet class. You do not have to be enrolled during your CP. I will graduate in December and I am doing my CP in the spring. I would call the college recruiting office and ask them. Their number is located on contact us section of wdwcollegeprogram.com.

Good luck!
