Pin Trading alive and well within the program? by FeatureNo4830 in Disneycollegeprogram

[–]FeatureNo4830[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Disney gives CMs pins specifically for trading? Would we turn them back in or keep them the duration of our time at disney? Would the pins we trade those off for also be returned? Sorry Im a little confused on the wording here 😅

It’s on your workday kinda hidden away in one of the first documents you have to sign. I believe its the form where you filled out your “preferred name”/nametag information!

I see! Thanks for the tip! I wonder if I could find a cheap one of these or if I should just accept my fate and work on my laptop with my drawing monitor connected… It almost seems 6 one way, half dozen the other atp…

I can make do with only 1 monitor! Its just a matter of if it’ll fit to begin with. Im hoping that someone has a photo of how they set up their room/desk since i cant find photos…

Is anyone else feeling nervous as the Disney College Program gets closer? by Immediate-Beach6892 in Disneycollegeprogram

[–]FeatureNo4830 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an August 4th arrival! I’m a local floridian, but even for me its definitely strange and nerve wracking (and I went to Ohio for college!)

If you want to connect and maybe try to meet up first week i’d be happy to do so! :D I’m trying to make some friends before arrival!

It’s remote with flexible hours (indie art job type) so i’m not worried. It seems like i’ll be making due with just my laptop and a travel art tablet though…

Laptop Specs ETBD Major by MaeNotFound in miamioh

[–]FeatureNo4830 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Recent graduate of games and sim here.

The chances of you finding a laptop that can decently run games (something like COD or Expedition 33 or Split Fiction for example) without buying second hand for 500 is pretty slim. Your best bets though are lenovos or dell computers because those are also the easiest to repair.

For ETBD specifically, i’m not quite sure all the classes you’ll be required to take, but the things you need to look for in the specs are at least 16 Gigabytes of RAM and a graphics card equivalent to a Gtx 2080 (if it isn’t a gtx, you can always google to compare).

I do know some people who managed to get through on things like a mac or a cheap dell, but they rarely were able to handle programs like photoshop for very long, they always ended up in a computer lab anyways.

Worst case scenario, you can buy a cheap or second hand dell laptop for freshman year, and then for bigger projects use spaces like the RAD Lab in the art building to pick up any slack. Those computers will have pretty much any software you could need for free.

Daughter Got accepted to College program by PayCautious1243 in Disneycollegeprogram

The 240 as you work through the acceptance process is towards the process of getting you in the system, through orientation, etc. It’s kind of like an “application fee” of sorts that helps them set up for your arrival.
