Brittany DiCologero - Disney College Program FAQ

I'm not sure how they decide which timeslot you get to be totally honest! Only one of my roommates was in my Traditions class, and as far as I know none of my coworkers were.

Jen - Unforgettable Character Meet & Greets at the Walt Disney World Resort

I’ve never been to Disney World and DisneyLand. I’ve always wanted to go to both. Mostly to Disney World cause it’s closer. I’m from Delaware. I hope one day I will go. Someone has to take me since I don’t and can’t drive. Meeting the Disney heroes and villains are one of the things I want to do so badly. I’ve been dreaming to meet them, besides going on rides. Some of the villains I would love to meet in person is Dr. Facilier, Cruella, Gaston, Hans, Maleficent, Tremaine, Oogie Boogie, Jafar, Hades, Frollo, Pete (if he is around), Shan Yu, Honest John and Gideon, and more. And of course love to meet Darth Vader, Boba Fett and other Star Wars villains and heroes too. For heroes, Aladdin, Jasmine, Hercules, Meg, Ariel, Mulan, Tiana, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, and more. So the villains are rare to find?? Wow. It’s like trying to find rare Pokémon. XD
