CMU Disney College Program

​​​​​​​​​Disney College Program
Welcome to the CMU Disney College Program!  One of Disney’s long standing university partners, CMU signed up when the program began in 1981.  An outstanding opportunity for college students from all disciplines, the program focuses on the transferable skills and training that will enhance any career. For more than 30 years, CMU Disney alumni have returned to campus with reports that the experience has been life changing and they feel more professionally mature.  Working as cast members and serving worldwide guests on a daily basis, the students also claim that the cultural experience goes beyond what they could have imagined. 

“This experience has been invaluable to my return to the classroom.  I am returning a stronger, more driven person than when I left.  I was unsure of my major going into this program, but this experience has inspired me to pursue a business degree.  I have motivation that I lacked before.  I return to the classroom with a new skill-networking.  I now know how to appropriately meet and interact with professional people, and I feel comfortable doing so.  I also have a new found sense of confidence that I did not have before.” Beth-Business Major  Merchandise, Dinoland USA, Animal Kingdom
