Looks like fun, but it’s absolutely appalling that a company worth $1 billion has the nerve to charge college students $400 to accept a job that pays them $11/hour. That’s a week’s worth of wages you’re giving them for free. Disney can dress it up as an ‘admin fee’ or whatever they like, but in Australia we call it wage theft and it’s illegal. US labor laws are wild.
Who loves disneyyy!
I had never been to Disney until I graduated college and I wish I had known before so I could've applied for the DCP. Love your videos and your love for Disney! Thanks for bringing some magic to all of us Disney lovers!
Same! I discovered it not long after lining up my full-time job.
I absolutely looove your channel I can’t wait for some more Disney world content!!! I want to do the dcp!!! 🤍🤍🤍
I'm obsessed with that bibbidi bobbed boo shirt. SO CUTE

I truly love your channel! You seem to love your work and Disney, and you and your friends always look to be having the greatest time! So much fun!! Keep up the great content, Bronwyn!!!
you helped me with my first interview process & really deciding I wanted to do the program a year ago! I’m excited to see what new content you come up with and to follow your journey - you are a vibe !!
Thank you Bronwyn for making everyone's quarantine better! Your always so happy and bright! I hope your staying safe and healthy during this trying time! Love you and your videos so much!
Love you so much Bron! I hope to get into the program in spring, and you are SUCH a big help! Thank you so much ❤️

Love you been binging all the old vlogs! Miss Holly!!!
I just started watching your videos and I absolutely love them!!! ✨
Girl you are the Dcp queen! I did fall advantage 2016 and I watch your videos still cause they make me so happy!
I’m so happy I got to be here early! I absolutely love you and your channel and you have taught me so much!
Girl your videos are literally the most helpful ones out there and you are so genuine🥺🤍
I was supposed to start my program earlier this month and have been binging content to fill the void in my heart. Thank you for posting so many wonderful videos!!
I’ve dreamed of doing the DCP since early HS I’m finally graduating and going to college. I’m so exciteddds
always a good day when Bron uploads:) and we get 5 days in a row☺️
Thank you so much for bringing light to a dark time! You’re gorgeous btw!! ❤️
Bron thank you so much for these videos I'm learning so much about the dcp and can't wait to apply!!
Thank you so much for being honest and saying that you didn't get accepted the first time around. The same thing happened to me and I was so so sad, but knowing I am not the only one gives me comfort that I might get in for next semester.
I remember doing my first college program a years ago and watching your video explaining each role and that's when I completely got hooked in your channel lol
I looove your channel and me and my mom love to learn about the DPC and watch your vlogs. I love you channel!
Can’t wait for the rest of this week!!
Thanks for the video ! Also omg the background of you room is so cute and you are so so pretty ! 🥺✨x
Thank you! Love your videos and are awesome when in quarantine!
Love this!! and love all your videos!!
I love watching your videos! I was one of the students that lost their program this year. I was going to go April 20-July 31. But i am hopeful and will try again next year!
just decided to start researching abt dcp and im so happy ive found ur vids!!
Love love love your channel! Can’t wait for more videos 💕
It's gonna take a lotta Disney Magic to get us through these dark, diseased times.
A whole week of Bronwyn videos 😩👌 I’ll never be able to do dcp because I’ve graduated but I love watching your videos while I’m currently furloughed 😅
I can't wait until my program (if it's even still a thing after corona)!!! I was wondering if you could talk a little bit more about living on dcp housing, like the pros and cons of each apartment complex, as well as the bus situation! Thank you for bringing your positivity into quarantine-- it is much appreciated!
Hi I'm a CP alum :) Dcp housing has sort of a college dorm vibe if that makes sense lol (you're living with a lot of people in a small space/some ppl are trying to party/some are figuring out how to live on their own finally/mostly everyone is trying to have a lot of fun - stuff like that). During my program, Vista Way had the most of that vibe and Patterson had it the least (it seemed the most like chill and quiet). The others were in the middle. Taking the bus works fine but having a car is awesome. With the bus you must plan around the bus schedule, it takes longer to get places because of other stops/you may have to walk far to get to the bus stop from your apartment. To me the bus was not the ideal form of transport but it worked.
My program will (hopefully) start on August 3rd and I’ve never been more excited!
Wow you answered all of my questions! You are so helpful!! 💗💗
Thank you for making this video. I’m not in college yet but I really want to do the dcp. So thank you for informing me of all this information.
I love your videos and the information you give us. Thank you!
Thanks so much for this video. I'm 37 and finishing my Radiology degree next summer. I thought I was way to old to apply but knowing there were others older than me kind of made me change my mind. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a spot! Thanks B ❤
they did just recently update Disney Look so you can have up to two piercings in each ear and you’re allowed to get highlights/balayage/etc done to your hair as long as it’s natural colors (brunette/blonde/ginger/black) and you’re willing to maintain it.
I so wish I had this video when I was in college! Super informative and helpful and definitely wouldn’t have missed out on my chance. 💔 ALSO, what is your lip color?! It’s gorgeous on you!
I interviewed for the international program to work in the Canadian pavilion in Epcot. Even though I didn’t get the job, the experience was amazing
Bronwyn your eyes are mesmerizing 😍
definitely going to do it once i graduate from nursing school! ❤️
Thank you! This helps a lot, I just got accepted yesterday and start in August!
omg... you are the first American DCP youtube that's even mentioned the cultural exchange program! I feel seen:) lol, I can't wait to apply for it for summer 2021!
This might be in a future video, but I'll ask it here anyway😊 you have done the college program for photopass and the boutique, so I was wondering (in general or specifics) what the other programs are? I'm just curious💕I love that you're doing this!!
yay im almos th first!! i love your videos i hope you are doing well!
I love your channel so much!!! ❤️❤️
you look like a disney princess 🥺👑
Not even going to be doing a program, just loving your videos 💕😊👌🏼
Yay new video ❤️💕I’m dying to start DCP
I hope I can join when its back up at Disneyland. I have three friends who were in it
I love these videos! I’m going to be applying to the DCP and I just want to learn as much as I can about it.❤️
this was so helpful!!! thank you 🤍
ahhh ive been waiting for another bron vid!
I am planning on applying after I graduate and wondered if I should see how the application process is before I graduate. Thank you for the advice! I was super worried about going through the application process and it look bad on me in the future if I reject the opportunity before I actually want to do the program. Your videos have been a great help about the program!
as far as I know, unless you tell them in your interview you previously turned down an offer they wont know youve even applied before. but even if they do know it wont hurt your chances of being accepted!
Ohh I loved this video! Do you know if there are any journalism opportunities within WDW? I’m also thinking about the Aspire program as there’s a Disney resort where I live...
Had no idea this was a thing! Thank you :)
Hi!! Love this video, thank you so much for doing it!! Quick question, why do you have to pay the $400? Like what does it go to? Also, does it cost extra to take the classes if you choose to? Thanks so much!!🥰
I graduated from college over a decade ago so this doesn't apply to me, but I had an internship after college at a company not related to Disney so I'm interested in internships. Do you think the internship really does help you get a foot in the door at Disney, especially if you want to work higher up and not in one of the theme parks? Since there are thousands of interns, how do you set yourself apart to get noticed? Do you have the option of speaking to an adviser about how to move up in the company? Do you get advance notice of job postings within the company?
Hi I wanted to say your the reason why I'm thinking about applying for the dcp program. I have a question actually about working in the boutique. You have to know all these different hairstyles and looks do they teach you how to style the hair and how to be gentle with the kids?
In training they do teach you the hairstyles ❤️
hi!! I am really excited about the DCP, but i was wonder what the cost is around?
Excellent as always
Hey Bron! I was wondering if we would be able to get some Sit-down content about college, dance, and just your life because I’d be really interested to get to know you as a person outside of Disney through your channel!
I haven't graduated high school yet but I have done my research and found that back in 2014 Disneyland didn't do distance learning for classes. Is that still true today or has Disneyland adapted to distance learning?
Love your videos!!! A few questions, when should you apply for the programs, like when do applications open for the different sessions? Also, when you say no ombré hair, would that include highlighted hair that is naturally more brown at the roots and blonder at the bottom?
Check the dcp website for application dates depending on which program you want to apply for. Your hair needs to look like it could naturally grow like whatever color it is.
im 16 and i’m graduating early as well as taking dual enrollment college classes but if i keep doing this i would only be able to do it for one year but i would like to do it longer so what can i do?
great video!! so helpful
If you do a 1 1/2 years of college classes in high school does that count as a semester of college?
does your eligibility to do the alumni program end at the same time as your dcp eligibility (shortly after completing college) or does it last longer? If so when does it “expire”/ no longer eligibile for alumni?
Is a natural ombre hair ok for dcp?
Thank you for the very informative video!!
Do you know if black for glasses count as a neutral color? I would think it does but i don’t know for sure.
I was wondering if you could talk more about extending your program? I haven’t found any videos talking about it. Also about opportunities to stay with the company after?
Hi cp alum here :) Toward the end of your program you will get emails about applying to extend your program into another program. So basically you'll be doing a second CP program. Opportunities to stay on with the company as a non cp employee straight from your cp are super random and unlikely. You might get lucky and your location will be looking for a seasonal/part time/full time employee which you might hear about from a coordinator, but that's pretty rare. You can always apply to jobs through the disney careers website and the fact that you have the cp on your resume will help you.
after you got and then reapplied for summer alumni and fall 2019 did you use the same resume and did it always work for getting past the application stage or would you recommend changing your resume every time?
The godess returns!
for anyone who has done this before, how much research did you do? Was there anything you wished you looked up before you done it?
Thank you so much for making these videos!!💕💕 1 small little random question: Does extra magic hours apply to the cp’s??
It does not - emh are only for resort guests. When my fam came to visit me during my cp i put my name on their room like i was staying with them so that i could go to emh with them. A small trick though - if you are already in the park and night emh start you can stay in the park and go to shops and walk around but you can't go on any rides because that's where they check your magic band to see if you are a resort guest.
Hi, I just got accepted into DCP, and didn't realize my ombre hair could be a problem. If my ombre is natural colors is that alright or do I need to dye it before i go to Disney?
Thank you for explaining
Does anyone here know if you can apply for the cultural representative program (Norway) now or if they´ve stopped taking in people because of covid? Someone please help meee
Hi bron!! i have a question, can you do normal college while doing dcp thanks✨✨✨
Ok so I was going to be one of the Fall Advantage 2020 CP’s, but as we know it was cancelled, my question is that I put to put me with someone random for the college program, how would you find out who it is? Do you find out before you arrive or when you get there? Like would I even know they’re name or anything about them?
What would you consider is "too old" for the program? I feel like most of the people on it are 18-25. Is it typical to see people 26+ and would you recommend it?
Is the arrival date during the semester? I’m in my last year of undergrad and I haven’t applied because of this lol
Do you get to choose what department you work in?
If I were to get finger tattoos how would I cover those
Sorry if this is a dumb question! But what’s the difference between doing the dcp vs just getting a job at Disney? I’m only asking because of the 400 dollar fee. It’s like I’m paying them to hire me?
can I apply as a community college student?
hey bron! I was wondering about your friends/roomies on your programs and if they were able to graduate on time? and what were some examples of their majors? just trying to figure out how to get that internship credit!
Hi! dcp alum here :) I took a semester off college to do the cp so I ended up graduating a semester later than I would have but I think it was worth it. Getting internship credit for the dcp has to do with your college advisor/major department head.
I was an environmental science major and i was a recreation cp. My department head did not give me internship credit because he decided that the job I was going to have wasn't related enough to my major. Secondary to that, I took a Disney sustainability lecture class (it had no homework or tests) and my department head did think it applied to my major but he would not give me credit because he needed the class to have tests to show him I was putting in effort.
On the flip side, I had a sorority sister who also did the CP, she was a recreation cp like me, she was a recreation and parks major, she didn't take any classes and she got internship credit. I also had roommates who did the cp the semester after they graduated because graduating on time was more important.
If you want to be sure about getting credit, I would go to your college advisor and bring info about the program jobs and classes and ask them what you would have to do while you are there in order to get credit.
love love love your channel! were you allowed to wear your apple watch to work during the dcp?
it depends on your role
I am thirteen, and I am already planning what I want to do in college 🤣 I reallllllllly want to do this program! I am glad that Disney has changed their policy.
Hi! Been a silent viewer forever but I absolutely ADORE your content and personality! 💖 I wasn’t allowed to have a job during high school (boarding school lol) so I have fairly limited work experience. Do you think that’ll pose a problem on the application? (I’ve had a ton of volunteer experience if that counts for anything haha)
no! i didn’t have any real experience either
Once Upon a Bron sweet! thanks for the reply 🥺
If you don't mind answering, what University are you going to? And what classes are you taking?
i’m in 7th grade but i rlly wanna do dcp when i’m in college
i LOVE your channel
So you can’t do the Disney college unless you are at a Different college like you can’t just do disney college?
I have both contacts and glasses. Would I be allowed to switch between the two for work, or just stick to one or the other for the whole program? I love your videos btw ❤️
you can switch between the two!
What is the benefits of this program? Like why do this and not just take a semester off and apply for a job there the normal way? Especially you said YOU pay to basically work here?
