How does the whole taking classes for the program actually work? I'm very interested but I'm also very overwhelmed by it all.

I took two online classes during my program and 1 that met once a week from Disney. I often just did the hw for my online class after work or in the morning of my days off. so i could go to the parks at night. If you have any other questions message me

Oh my gosh, thank you so much! You were so fast in replying! Did you take classes through disney? Or were they through the college you were already attending?

How long is the program? Just one semester?

Did you find your experience enjoyable?

Also you had to pay for transportation to Disney correct? I mean if you lived in a different state at the time of applying.

How many hours a week did you work?

And how much were you paid monthly?

I took one class through Disney which didn't count for any credit it was just a Disney history class. And I took two online through a college back home. My program went from January 27-may 30. But there is also programs that go through the summer. More info on that could be found on the DCP site. I loved my experience and wouldn't trade it for anything. The memories I have will be with me forever. Yes you had to pay for your own way down to the program however once you arrive there is transportation to and from work and the anywhere on Disney property. I worked about 35-40 hours a week depending. And I was paid minimum wage but I think they make 9.00 now but don't quote me on that.
