Good luck! I interviewed in the end of January....for the classic Fall 08 program that starts near the end of August.....
They asked me the same situational question about a boy not meeting the height requirements for space mountain....they also asked me how could I make guests days magical.

Yeah that is very formulaic. They asked that kind of question when I interviewed back in October of last year.

Good luck with your interview.

Hey ? Do you HAVE to be an alumni to do the summer program.. because of my major and the $$$ of my school, I can't do the actual College program during the semester... Since they offer my major/professional objective for the summer program/professional thing... do i have to be an alumni to do it... or will it just be harder for me to get in because of that?

There used to be a first-time CP summer program. But there hasn't been one since 2006. The last 2 summers (including this one) have been alumni only. They may change it back. But there is no way to know.

There is a way to deal with the $$$'s of the college. My former CP was at a very expensive private college when he came home with the idea of CP'ing for a semester. There was no way in God's Green earth that one was going to pay that kind of money to a university to be CP'ing in Disney. He applied and was accepted though his university however we registered for the CP Program though the local Community College. One semester cost $816.00 and he received 12 credit hours which kept him as a full time student and on our health insurance. Then returned to college the following semester after the CP was over.

He really wished to do the program. It will cost him only his time. It will now take him 4 l/2 years to complete his degree vs. 4 however he believes the experience is well worth being a semester behind and we did not have to pay the high tuition for that semester. As a Mom I view it as a Win Win.
