Additional requirements may apply per school guidelines - Students are told to check with their school for any additional requirements.

Yes. Students may view our online, 24/7 E-Presentation at their convenience. They may also choose to attend a presentation at another school. To ensure that students receive timely and accurate information about the Disney College Program, students must view a presentation (live or online) before they can interview.

Students must apply on-line. Once students have submitted their applications, they need to attend a presentation. At the presentation, students will receive information on scheduling interviews. Students must bring a copy of their completed applications to the presentation.

It is not necessary to bring a résumés to apply for the Disney College Program. However, students may bring them to their interviews if they wish.

A student is more than welcome to apply and interview the following recruiting season (the following semester) provided that they still meet the base application/participation requirements. However, students can apply and interview only once per semester.

Unfortunately, we are unable to conduct walk-in interviews at the Walt Disney World Casting Center. We encourage candidates to attend a live presentation or schedule a phone interview after viewing the E-Presentation.

Most of the necessary information is available on the Web site. Students, parents and faculty are encouraged to attend the presentation together. A Disney College Program recruiter will be on hand to answer all questions. If you would like to speak to someone immediately, please Contact Us.

Traditionally, recruiters conduct presentations twice a year (once during the fall semester and once during the spring semester) at "host schools". Host schools provide our recruiters a location for conducting presentations. Educators and students from "visiting schools" must travel to these "host schools" for a presentation.

"Host schools" are chosen using a number of criteria, including undergraduate populations, majors offered and geographical location. Please Contact Us if you are interested in becoming a host school.
