Honestly I am so relieved at the part where you mentioned about the work experiences, I have done some small volunteer work and worked with my family before throughout high school and some now in college. hearing about how they would look into what you have done helps, I am really hoping I can get into the DCP sometime in the future when this pandemic is over
Great video! Looking forward to part 2. Even though others have done similar videos, I think it’s beneficial to hear lots of first hand accounts for people trying to prepare themselves for the program. So thank you for sharing your story!
In my college (in mexico) you need to be a certain major, for example, theres the summer program and the semester program, in summer any major can apply except for medicine and for the semester only the ones related with international buissnes, turism, etc. I was about to apply this summer (i'm studying dentistry) but my college said there's a probability the program will open applications until 2022 :((
I’m not sure if you can answer this question but how does it work to be a performer in the shows or parades? I’m a dancer and want to audition if I make it into the program so would that count as my job? Or would I have a different role and that would just be on the side of it? Thanks!
Hi, I know I’m not Bella but I did do the college internship. So if you wish to be a performer in the parades and such at walt disney world or Land you have to go to a Disney audition. What I did was, I applied for the Disney internship and when applying at the same time I was looking for auditions near me, which at the time was madison Wisconsin. So if you get accepted you are given a role on the acceptance email, but if you audition and they want you for a character role or performer role then they will change your role to what you auditioned for. I hope that helped, make sure you look up “the Disney college program” on google and on the website they should have it.
This is actually something that I considered doing myself (and I'm still considering it). In order to be any kind of performer, you need to go to an audition. So if you are accepted, you will be put in one of the standard roles. Then later on they will release dates for character performer auditions that you can go to before the program. However keep in mind that these auditions are for character performers in general, so this means there is a high chance you won't be put in a dancer role right away. They do, however, hold auditions randomly throughout the year for cast members for specific shows, parades, etc. (Meaning, you would get a better chance of doing a dance role as a full time cast member rather than a CP.) So for your program, your option would be to go to an audition, but it's most likely that you'll get a regular character performer role. I hope this makes sense!!
Hi! So you'll go to a dcp audition. Usually CPs are cast as fur characters but I've heard of CPs rarely getting face or parade dancers. The performers in the shows (ex. Beauty and the Beast at Hollywood) usually need to be AGVA (union) so they are not cps. If you specifically want to be a Disney dancer I would try to get hired full time as a dancer by going to specific dancer auditions which you can find on the disney auditions website. Also, whatever role you get placed in for your dcp that will be your only job you can't have another job on the side. :)
Yes! My roommate Brooke took online classes with her school! She was able to balance it well and never really had an issue with it. Just gotta use time management! If you have any other questions about it let me know and I can ask her for you!
Know yourself lol. I don't think I could have handled taking classes because your given about 40 hours per week. Also though I'm not the best with time management haha
Leeahmsy I. I think you can gain credit depending on your college and their rules. This internship is to give you the oppertunity to meet people who work for disney and decide whether or not you want a disney carrer. This internship also allows you to meet new people and work in an environment where youll have longer hours than your probably used to working. overall it just prepares you for life after college.
@@debragray384 I hope to get a future job in the animation preferably at Disney, so would it be good to do this (DCP)? I’ve heard it looks great on resumes and would it be a small benefit for when I try to become a Disney animator
Wierdly ive noticed during my program **Fall Advantage 2017 baby** lol majority of the CPʻs at least who i have met or worked with were either from Hawaiʻi or went to School in Hawaiʻi we were all placed at the Polynesian Village Resort coincidence i dont know but it was pretty cool!? haha i even worked with people who literally went to the same school as i did but that was my experience and maybe one factor on how they place different people in roles/locations! Love your Videos from a former CP Aloha from Hawaiʻi :)
does it matter what college you go to? i am starting to apply for colleges and i am working towards doing this program but i am not sure if i need to go to a college or university in california or florida or if i can come from anywhere?
Nope, doesn't matter at all where your college is! I'm pretty sure that it doesn't matter at all what school it is. There may be a few exceptions but from what I know, it can be any school!
Yes! It depends on the school but I know many people who took online classes with their school while they were on the program in order to not fall behind.
Any classes you take for your degree has to do with your college (if they offer online or summer classes). Your college advisor also decides if you get college credit for the program itself and any disney classes you might take.
Hey! Thanks for this video.. I want to be an actor/singer what do you think is best for me considering Disney College program, internships, etc..? Thanks!
You should definitely audition to be a character performer! You can do that on the Disney College Program! But you can also audition outside of the internship, you don't have to do the dcp to be a performer.

Even though I’m not old enough to do the program I am on a kick and watching a ton of vids so it’s perfect that you posted!!!
at age 16 I’m like “should I immediately go for veterinary jobs (that’s what i wanna do) after college or should I do the dcp”
Honestly I am so relieved at the part where you mentioned about the work experiences, I have done some small volunteer work and worked with my family before throughout high school and some now in college. hearing about how they would look into what you have done helps, I am really hoping I can get into the DCP sometime in the future when this pandemic is over
I’m not even interested in the Disney college program, but I love all her videos!💕👍
this helps so much! and i’m in love with your content!!!!! 💛💛💛
Great video! Looking forward to part 2. Even though others have done similar videos, I think it’s beneficial to hear lots of first hand accounts for people trying to prepare themselves for the program. So thank you for sharing your story!
i love this!! i move in in august and watching these videos are making me so excited
Yep I move in August and this video is making me so excited have you heard anything about the program yet
I'm a hospitality major and I thought this video was super helpful with deciding whether or not to do the program
Love this, and your editing is so good!!
Which role do you think the wilderness explorer kind of guide person (I’m not explaining that well I’m so sorry) would be
that’s a professional internship!!
Disney Conservation Education Presenter I believe is the specific role name. 😊 I’m interested in that role as well.
i really hope that when i go on the dcp (hopefully 2025 or 2026) it’ll be open 😩! i’ve been dreaming of this since 5th gradeee
also what’s your shirt called on the shop disney app it’s so cuteeeep

did you know anyone who took classes at their university while enrolled in the program??

love your videos! im going to be doing fall 2020 :)
Me too! What’s your role? :)
I'm also doing fall 2020 have you heard anything yet
@@emmaisaksen8970 have you heard anything yet mine is food service
What is the background music you used in this video? just curious
I really wish I could remember but sadly I don't 😅 I usually just search "non copyrighted aesthetic music" on TH-cam and use the same ones randomly
@@bellaelisabeth8488 gotcha! thanks, that's what I've been doing too lol
I don’t get it what’s the program even for? If u don’t gain any credit
Leeahmsy I. I think you can gain credit depending on your college and their rules. This internship is to give you the oppertunity to meet people who work for disney and decide whether or not you want a disney carrer.

I was looking online and couldn’t find the exact answer so I wanted to know if it’s canceled right now due to covid? By the way loved your video
yes, they're basically on hold for a while, I don't think they've said when they're bringing the program back yet!

i love your new intro!
does it matter what college you go to? i am starting to apply for colleges and i am working towards doing this program but i am not sure if i need to go to a college or university in california or florida or if i can come from anywhere?
you can come from any college, doesn't have to be near a disney park since DCP has housing for you.
Nope, doesn't matter at all where your college is! I'm pretty sure that it doesn't matter at all what school it is. There may be a few exceptions but from what I know, it can be any school!
Yeah! As far as application requirements go, you just need to be enrolled in classes in college and have completed at least one semester.
@@TheAardvarkPanda so if I went though one year of college, could I do it the next fall and take off a semester of college?
@@xskywlkerx1076 yes
Could you take the courses you missed over the semester while at the program in the summer online?
I’ve heard of a lot of kids doing this if their school offers it.
I think if your school offers it it’s probably possible
Yes! It depends on the school but I know many people who took online classes with their school while they were on the program in order to not fall behind.
