Reasons to extend your Disney College Program
You’ve been having a great time on your Disney College Program, and now it’s time to make that important decision – to extend or not to extend? Here are some great reasons on why you should extend.
More time, more magic!
Extending your Disney College Program gives you the opportunity to experience even more magical moments. By extending your program, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the full range of what Walt Disney World offers, from holiday spectaculars to seasonal festivals to Program Celebration and more!
Take advantage of endless learning possibilities
With more time on your Disney College Program, you can take advantage of even more learning offerings. Explore the wide range of career-focused classes, panel discussions and even try your luck at scoring a spot in one of the exclusive Discover Disney offerings. By extending your program, you will have more time to take what you learn in those classes and apply it to your role. You’ll also have more time to work on reaching 100 hours of learning to earn a Goofy Graduate certificate. Gawrsh!
