Learning

**NOTE: This will most likely by very sparse because I have chosen not to take the classes Disney offers. I am opting to take Biology via online classes. So... anyways.

Okay, so first thing you should no is taking classes down in Disney is 100% optional. You don’t have to even take classes online if you don’t want to. The only college requirement of Disney is that you be enrolled in college at the time of your application. You also must be over 18 years of age and have over a 2.0 GPA. Very, very lineate requirements if you ask me, but hey! I’m not complaining!

The courses offered are:

• Disney Corporate Communications
  
• Disney Experiential Learning
  
• Disney Advanced Studies In Hospitality
  
• Disney Human Resources Management
  
• Disney Marketing You
  
• Disney Organizational Leadership
  
• Disney College Program Practicum
  
• Disney Creativity & Innovation
  

Additional learning opportunities include:

• Distant-learning classes: Many colleges offer coursework that can be completed online while in the program. Disney provides computer lab access and test proctoring services for these courses. The is also high speed Internet in your room so you can use your laptop to complete and submit assignments.
  
• Professional Development Studies: Depending on your major, you may be eligible to participate in one of Disney’s sessions that focus on Engineering, Entertainment, Finance, and Security.
  
• Disney Exploration Series: If you choose to participate in this program you will receive a first hand look at how Disney operates through back stage tours, guest speakers, and field trips.
  
• Disney Learning Centers: You are able to use Disney libraries to build your skills, acquire knowledge and develop your career. Resources include language tutorials, Internet access, personal-and-professional-development courses, and networking events such as Career Insights.
  

If you do chose to take the courses offered there, you need to know what to expect. Homework may include assigned reading, papers, and special projects. You will not be scheduled to work during class time, but you may be asked to work before or after class. The only cost of the class is text book cost (any where from $15-$120).


It is up to you to talk to your college and your scholarship representative to see what you need to do to suspend your scholarship or remain enrolled in your college.
