10 Last Minute Reasons To Apply For The Disney College Program
Rachel Durbin

With only a couple short days left to apply for the Disney College Program, here are a few good reasons to take the leap of faith and apply!

1. It opens new doors.

Having Disney on your list of references looks amazing to any company!

2. Experience without the experience.

If you're like me and have never had a job, Disney is a wonderful place to get experience without having any prior to that.

3. It's literally a vacation.

You may work a lot, but you're at the Happiest Place on Earth with free park admission! It doesn't get any better than that, plus all of your other awesome benefits.

4. The culture is amazing.

Disney is an amazing place to work where you get to meet so many new faces from all around the world! You may even learn a few phrases in some languages you never knew and better your communication skills!

5. The people you meet.

You'll meet lifelong friends at Disney, just like I and other fellow cast members did. You'll make a lot of connections and see many friendly faces through your program.

6. You can always leave...or stay!

You can always self-term if the DCP isn't your cup of tea, but I promise you it will be! You even have the chance to extend up to a year!

7. You learn amazing things.

You learn so much about the Walt Disney Company and the wonderful world around you!

8. It sticks with you.

The things you learn in Disney will stick with you, and that's not a bad thing. Just ask anyone who was a cast member about the Disney Point and Scoop!

9. It's the most rewarding job you'll ever have!

Just wait until you make your first magical moment.

10. It's a job like no other.

I finished my program in May 2016, and I still miss it every day! Nothing compares to a role at Disney, making dreams come true and being a part of the magic!

Now, I don't want to give it all away and ruin the surprises, but I have one last reason: why the heck not?! You can always change your mind if you'd like even if you get an offer! What can it hurt? It's better to apply then have to ask yourself why you didn't. Now go for it! You can apply here.

Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
