    DCP and Tattoos?

    It really depends on the resort that you end up working at. A lot of them have front desk and concierge CM wear pants, but some locations have female CM wear skirts and then you'd likely have to cover it with makeup. Whenever you apply and have your phone interview just be sure to bring it up...

    She can bring it but if she wants to keep it under her bed she'll probably need to buy bed risers.

    ?? for DCP Alumni

    When she moves out she just has to drop off her key, housing id, and car decal (if she had one) at the housing office for her complex. I believe they want you out by 11 am, if I remember correctly.

    restricted rehire question

    Have you had a steady job since you left the company? I know they like to see at least 6 months of employment at another job before they'll consider you for another position. If you've already talked to casting I'm not sure there's much else you can do.

    There's a hotel (I think it's Holiday Inn) that's practically right across the street from Vista Way (checkin location), so they could walk to check in together and not worry about a taxi. A lot of people stay there the night before. Some others opt to stay at a Disney Resort before checkin so...

    Have her fly Southwest, they give 2 checked bags for free. Most people that fly end up buying most of that bulky stuff once they get there. Some people will pack it but then end up having less room to pack clothes and other stuff. Get some space bags, they really help in being able to get the...

    Yes, it's normal. There are people that interviewed Jan. 28 that are still waiting. They have until April 20 to give you a response.

    They can buy them if they want one and link their pass to it. Their merchandise discount will apply to the purchase of a magic band, so it's really not that pricey if they want one or more than one if they choose to collect them.

    They have a website where you can view the blackout dates. You don't even have to be a CM to view it. They only publish the dates about 3 months out. https://blockoutdates.disney.com/parks-florida/#Magic-Kingdom

    finding roomates

    There are different facebook groups for each arrival date, make sure she joins the one for her specific arrival date as well as the general group for the Fall program. Finding roommates in the groups can kind of be like a middle school dance... no one seems to want to make the first move. Tell...

    Why was I rejected?

    For the WBI it's important to give consistent and strong answers. They ask a lot of basically the same questions in different ways, such as: "I'm always on time" vs. "I'm never late". Your answers need to be consistent. It's also better to answer strongly agree/disagree as much as possible...

    A couple of questions

    The fees for the WDW program are $350. $150 is a "program assessment fee" which pays for CP activities during your program (housing events, grocery bingo, CP graduation, etc). The other $200 goes towards your first few weeks of rent. If you choose to live in non-Disney housing the $200 will...

    Current CP: What are my odds of getting accepted?

    I've never actually heard of someone applying for another CP while still doing one because you can just extend into the following semester. Towards the end of your program you should get an email with directions on how to apply to extend into the Fall if you want to stay.

    A couple of questions

    1. You can choose to live in your own housing. 2. Once you're offered a role you have 7 days to accept your offer, pay your fees, and choose your arrival date. 3. You won't be alone, there are quite a few non-traditional students that have already been accepted for the Fall, from people in...

    Got my acceptance to the DCP!

    I'm doing FA as well, and I'm also older than the average CP (28). I'm also an alum, I did the college program a few years ago when I was younger and now that I'm back in school I decided to go for one more round. As far as transportation goes you'll probably end up being a bus greeter. It's...

    Background check question

    The background disclosure is no longer a part of the application. Once you accept your position, pay your fees, and choose an arrival date you'll get an email after that with the subject "Disney College Program: Request for Additional Information" that will include two links, one of which is...
