    Hey guys

    Right, i am now in total panic!!!!!!

    I have been accepted for the ICP 2006 summer programme, my pack isnt here yet but ive done my interviews and i have been told i have the job. The thing is, a couple of posts on here say that if you are applying for the summer programme you have to be a returning student- but im not! I graduate this year, but nothing I've been given says i have to be returning, and no ones asked for proof of this!

    Im so worried I've been given the job and now they are going to take it away because of something that isnt my fault- HELP ME PLEASE!!! :'(

    Hi gem,

    As far as i was aware u had to be still in uni or college to do the summer program. as u will graduate at the start of the summer this might exclude u. But my advice is to stay quiet, you have got the job and unless they bring it up and ask for evidence, i would just keep my lips sealed... Believe me u don't want to do anything like tell them this fact and maybe ruin your chance to go.

    Charlie.

    im worried though that I just won't get the VISA now, because i know for other programmes with other organisations you have to have this proof to get it!

    Im going to be gutted if this is the case, if my student status was a requiement surely someone at some point should have told me?!? :-[

    Hi Gem,

    Yes i know what u mean about evidence for visas and that, but the point you could make if they say anything is that you are applying for the visa now in the next month or so probably... u will not know until may/ june if u pass ure degree, but you could use the excuse god forbid that if u have to repeat exams or do resists for whatever reason then u will still be in uni to the end of this year... OR make the case that u r going on to do a postgrad or masters so will techincally still be in uni...

    Hope this helps,
    Charlie.
    P.s. in no way i'm i saying that u might fail... lol..

    hi!!!

    well when i ask for college they told be i have to be a student in my second semester of univ and be i one of the univ with had the agreement with disney...so they are careful with her participants and if u alredy get the job i dont think u have any problem... they wouldnt risk hire some one if dont have all the requirements they need, maybe just call them and ask about for the visa, and as charlie say u can say u dont know yet if u pass (im sure u will ;)) or the master too in that case u will still be a student! so dont worry too much, im sure it will be ok ;)

    XOXO

    when I went for my VISA they didnt actually ask for the proof that I was coming back, the only proof you needed was either education, or a letter from work, or a bank statement.

    They didnt ask for it in the end anyway.

    It's a difficult subject this

    Right, well I think im going to have to contact yummy jobs ??? i don't want to be planning for the experience of a lifetime and find out at the last minute its not going to happen!

    No one seems to really know, and although it hasn't been mentioned to me at all it seems to be that returning to education does feature somewhere in the procedure. Im going to be unbelievably gutted if i can't go, but i guess its better to find out sooner rather than later :(

    Finger crossed for me guys! And thank you all for your help and advice, i'll keep you posted

    Hugs gem

    Hey Guys

    Well, it looks like im not going to be joining you all this summer :( Somehow it got lost in my application process that i had to be a returning student to join the International College Programme, and despite the fact on forms i filled in i put i graduated this year it somehow got missed.

    Im not blaming anyone, mistakes get made and Yummy have said i can go to the interviews for the year long programme- but obviously this is a much bigger decision and i don't know what to do. And it means another interview, and a years a lot different to a few months! So im not sure.

    So for the mean time, it looks like i won't be seeing you guys any time soon- and im gutted :'(

    But hey, good luck to you all. Have loads of fun- i just know you all will!

    Hugs Gem

    oh no :'(

    That really sucks.

    I feel really sorry for you.

    DAMN CRUEL FATE!

    Have a serious think about ICP. It's a big decision but may well be worth it all in the end!

    Keep in touch tho!

    Thats pretty crap,

    So you were accpeted onto the program and now they are taking it away from you? And all because they didnt read your form corretly?! ???

    It seems to me like the issue about being a returning student should be one of the first questions the employer asks you...its obviously very important, yet they seem to completely forget about it!

    Anyway,

    Sorry to hear that you wont be there in the summer...

    I hope you have a great one anyway, the world is bigger than Disney!
     
  14. I am SO sorry!!! That is the absolute worst thing ever, it's all of our biggest fears, that they will have told us we're in and then we're not :(

    Please go for the year long program, you'll for sure get it since you were already in for this one, come live the Disney dream with all of us, a year is a long time but you'll be done uni and you really should!

    (((hugs))) keep trying!
