I'm obviously now very nervous for you to receive your acceptance email. AS SOON as it comes let us know!

And I know I shouldn't focus too much on it, but it's just so dang hard not to

Thanks! My phone interview was three days ago, so now I'm just waiting for an email letting me know my outcome. Fingers crossed it's good news!

Y'ALL. I GOT ACCEPTED.

I don't know if anyone is still on this thread but I got my email yesterday for Spring Attractions!

That is SO exciting! It seems like just yesterday we were years away from our CPs, now you've been accepted and I'll be applying in January, schedule permitting!

Right? We've been on this thread for like three years now, and it's finally our turn! Good luck with your application when the time comes!

Congrats! You'll have to stay in touch and keep us updated! How is everyone doing? My semester has been crazy thus far! I am looking forward to my family trip to WDW this December, 12/20-12/29. I'm planning on working a couple of seasonal shifts as well while I'm down there.

I haven't been on here in so long, but congrats! Tell us how it goes!



I think I have finally gotten my life plans together and in August/September, I'll be applying for Spring Advantage 2014. Still another year away, but omg I'll be applying this year! This is CRAZY!

Hopping on for my daughter. She is in her junior year of high school but every year when we go down she finds someone doing this program and talks to them. She is a dancer- been dancing and competing since she was 6 and would love to be able to do that there. What kind of spots do they have open for the program?

She can do the DCP Character Performer audition, which requires dancing. It is possible that from that audition she could get cast as a parade dancer but it is not likely because they don't cast many CPs as dancers because they won't be there for very long.

I'm also a junior and woud lovè to dance in Disney! I figure if I don't get the chance to do it on my program, I'll come back eventually as seasonal or something and audition again. I'm also considering Merch or Character Attendant

i found the website my junior year of high school but didn't think about it for a while until i got to college and remembered it. found it just in time too, they already had applications open for a little while so i quick applied and was accepted about a week after my phone interview!

i think the sooner you find it the better; it gives you time to ask around for tips, experiences, what not to do, etc without finding it all out on your own. check out youtube and just search dcp or disney college program, there's tons of videos up there

I cant wait until I get to apply. I've been planning since the summer after my sophomore year in HS and now that I graduate I get to apply this fall for Spring Advantage 2014!

Just a question, are there any others out there planning SA 2014? I would really like to start getting to know others looking to go down. I know its a little early as SA 2013 just went down last month, but it's seems so close as applications should be opening up within under 6-7 months~

Sorry double post... my kindle refreshed the previous post page

I can almost guarantee that I have the longest wait haha. Spring 2017 at the earliest.

I know-pathetic.

I CAN NOT WAIT THAT LONG.

[theworldneedscolor]

Fall 2015 hopeful here! It seems so far away, but I said that same thing about graduating high school, but that's less than a year and a half away!

My son actually has a longer wait than you He's just in the 8th grade but is already planning his CP days - he is following in the foot steps of his sister who did it from August 2008 - May 2009 at Dinosaur - he knows he can't request an area but he would love to work at Dinosaur as he knows several castmembers really well from there.

He is thinking Fall of 2019!
