Dulce R. - Avoid Personal Shopping Scams & Use the Shop Disney Parks Mobile App Instead

I ordered from a personal shopper before just because I wanted a Dooney & Bourke Cinderella bag to wear on my next Disney trip. The bag was sold out as they are limited edition and were no longer available on shop Disney. I ordered from a personal shopper that also does shopping blogs and character Warehouse blogs. She seems like a nice lady. She had also suffered from an illness several years ago which also made me more sympathetic towards her. So I purchased the back. The bag was 270 Plus if I'm not mistaken $40 and a tip for the personal shopper which I gave $20. When I received the bag it looked like it was used although the tag was on it. It smelled of cigarettes. The interior of the bag did not look like the standards that Dooney & Bourke go by. It was not high quality. I have several Dooney & Burke and I know that they put extra care in the interior of the bags. This Cinderella bags looks cheaply lined in the interior and it smelled of cigarettes. What a disappointment. I regret making this purchase and I will never purchase anything from a personal shopper again.

Brittany DiCologero - Disney College Program FAQ

You can have a second job, but you have to give Disney full availability. The only way having a second job is really doable with a Disney schedule is if you freelance or do something like uber or doordash where the schedule is entirely up to you.

disneycollegeprogram.com and any time applications are being accepted :)

I would look into applying to go after you graduate, the DCP would not take your classes into consideration when making your work schedule.
