However; my only work experience is filing in an office and such. I hope this won't hurt my chances. Well, it's great to meet you all! Have a magical day!

Aww, another poor soul who has a couple years to wait. That's awesome that you're looking for a lifelong career with the Mouse, my only reason not to is because I wouldn't want to have to move to work onsite. I don't think having a job matters in the slightest- I've seen lots of people who have never been employed in their life get in. Nice to meet you!

This board has died!

I've been super wrapped up in school and my organizations this semester, but that doesn't mean I've forgotten about y'all! I'm officially done with my sophomore year of college, which is both exciting and terrifying.

I've decided I'm finally applying for the CP for Spring or SA 2013! It's been a long process trying to sort out my life and figuring out where the CP would fit in best. HOPEFULLY I get accepted, but if not, I will definitely be applying for Fall 2013! I'm super nervous and excited and just can't wait until August so I can finally apply! I can't believe it's already been three years since I found out about the program and that my time to apply is almost here!

Basically I'm just super excited and wanted to fill y'all in on my life! Update me on what's going on with you and your Disney plans

Aww hey! Nothing much is going on for me on the CP front, obviously...but I have two friends that will be applying in a semester! I'm so excited to get to have someone who can show me the ropes when it comes time for me to apply.

And you KNOW you have to keep us up to date with your application! Awesome that someone's finally "graduating" from our little CP 201 club!

Ahh, here is the infamous thread! I'm a Junior in High school, and plan on doing the CP in Fall of 2015! I would love to be a character performer, BBB Hostess, A spiel attraction(ESPECIALLY the Great Movie Ride!), or a character attendant! I think it would be great to continue a career there. I'm going to be a musical theatre major, so Disney is definitely in my thoughts for future careers. Though, I still have no idea what I want to do. What I love about Disney is that it provides a special magic, and I'm a girl with a lot of big dreams, so I always feel such a happiness not only when I'm in the parks, but watching videos, reading articles, and seeing how Disney magic can impact a persons life. I love reading the experiences that people in the college program have had, and I can't wait to hopefully experience it myself in a few years!

I was actually thinking about you all a few days ago! My program has gone by so, so quickly. I have been here for 3.5 months and have 3.5 months left to go (I was able to extend my program and will be here until August 3rd, then it's back to school!) I am loving it and have plans to do another program after graduation, so soon it will be back to dreaming and planning for the future.

That's wonderful that you were able to extend! When will you graduate?

Yeah you forgot to come back and update us! Nice to see you again!

When will you graduate?! By that time I might be doing it too

Hello my lovely future (and current) CPers!

I will be graduating from high school in a little over a month, and then before I know it I'll officially be eligible for the CP! I'm planning on either FA 2013 or 2014. (I don't want to do a Spring CP because I'm going to college in New Orleans and I want to be there for Mardi Gras!) Of course I would much prefer 2013, but we'll see what my schedule will allow.

Glad to talk to you guys again!

GOING TO COLLEGE IN NEW ORLEANS...WHERE?!?!?!?!? (I'm thinking maybe like UNO or Xavier) and my friend is planning on Fall 2013! They graduate in a week. Funny that you want to do Fall to be here for Mardi Gras...that's always the week I leave to visit Disney World!

[wdwislife]

I'm going to Tulane! Haha as a native Mardi Gras must be old news to you, sort of like me going to Times Square as a New Yorker. I'm so excited to be in New Orleans for it next year though!

Basically when I start there in August I'm meeting with my advisor right away to work out the best time for me to do the program! And I'll definitely attend the campus presentation for Spring 2013 even though I won't be applying for it

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Aww well you're adorable! I forgot all about Tulane...that's a popular one for the CP. You have to tell us all how it goes too- especially me, since it will be a local school!

Aah, sorry for forgetting you all! Things have just been hectic. I have worked 40 hour work weeks for the past three weeks! My family is coming down to visit me in 8 days and then they will be back for another visit July 1 to 10th. I am actually ending my program on July 29th, instead of August 3rd and coming home July 30th, so I'll have two ish weeks at home before classes begin again.

And I'll graduate in 2013 (summer) or Fall, so my program will be Spring 2014most likely.

[Spo0nfulofSugar]

Well it sounds like you're having lots of fun and I'm glad they have kept you nice and busy!

And man, so close! Fall 2015 hopefully, for me.

[almartinez1219]

Hi! My name is Alexandra and I'm graduating next spring so I'm looking to do the Fall Advantage 2013 CP! I'm so excited to apply but the time is going so slow until January

[boyob13]

Felt like I should post here as well. ^_^

I'm currently a junior, and hope to go down for either Spring or Fall 2014 CP.
