Brittany DiCologero - Disney College Program FAQ

You can go through the contact form on the official Disney College Program site (unless you have a recruiter's contact info directly then I would use that, you may have something in your acceptance email) and ask them about it. When I did my program they were pretty strict on people not changing dates, so a lot of people I knew then in your situation would have done the program and self termed when they needed to, which isn't ideal if you need credit for it or want it on your resume. They are a lot more flexible with start/end dates in general now though so it wouldn't hurt to check with them!

Unless it has changed since my program, I do not believe you would pay the rest of your rent. Once you're there rent comes out of your paycheck, so no more paycheck, no more rent. They do ask you to leave housing pretty quickly once you self term though, usually within a day or two, so rent would stop with your last check.

Sadie - Disney College Program FAQ

Hello! I was recently accepted, and at the time was able to work for the entirety of summer, but now something important has come up with my family. Is there any way to ask if you can make your program stay shorter? Im currently supposed to go for 6 months (early january to late june)

Maria - Disney College Program FAQ

Do they make u pay the rest of your rent if you leave like 2 months early? Or just the rest of the week

I hope it works out for her! I had to turn down my first acceptance because of a similar situation. No credit meant I would have taken a leave of absence, and the terms of my scholarship specified consecutive semesters. Of course, now all these years later, my college gives credit for the DCP!
