More or less, you are going to find out this is a paid internship for college students. The program is either in Orlando, Florida at Walt Disney World, or in Anaheim, California at Disneyland. From either August to January or January to May, you could be living and working in one of six roles. This includes operations, entertainment, lodging, food and beverage, merchandise, or recreation. Living, learning, and earning as the company would say, you will be exposed to everything Disney. You will be living in housing provided by Disney, working and earning at a park or resort, and even taking college level courses taught by a successful Disney employee.
Although there only seems to be pros of agreeing to work at a world famous theme park, through more research you will find many articles, blogs, and videos all pertaining to 'why I quit Disney' and 'self termination during College Program.' Horror story after horror story you will find people distraught from a traumatic working experience at the happiest place on Earth, a little contradictory in my opinion.

The Disney World Resort has a massive size and is composed of four theme parks and two water parks. Due to Disney World’s massive size, the resort takes many more days to achieve the Disney experience and families must choose some attractions to not visit. While some people think that Disney World is impossible to navigate, it provides a complimentary transportation system to get from park to park and getting between theme parks and resorts. Disney World is also able to offer a wider variety and more attractions to experience than Disneyland. Also, Disney World has greater potential for expansion.

Four years ago we went to Disney World just my family and me, we had so much fun that we decided we would go again in four years. We started planning the next trip almost immediately; we were all so excited to go back. It was not going to be just us this time; my aunt and uncle’s family would be coming with us this time.

Many mergers tend to fail and many others succeed. A merger is the combining of assets and operations, usually between two similar sized companies, in an agreement to join together.

" Disney theme parks were built for the whole family to enjoy and they do a fine job stressing that. If you pay close attention to their advertisements you will see that they are not always aimed for children, in fact they are aimed at the parents most of the time with little phrases such as "Let the Memories Begin" and "This is Where the Magic Happens." Even the animation films are made to please the parents, with their good morals and some jokes that are meant for the child not to understand. In addition, the Disney Store has its own Home Decor department which is intended to satisfy the parents' wants as well as their children's, while the child is browsing through the toys, the parent is browsing through the Home Decor section.

When you first step through the gates of the park, instantly there is excitement everywhere.
