DORMS

Hi everybody! 

DORMS is something that is is new to the Disney College Program world... And the unknown is definitely scary! I previously posted about the announcement from Disney explaining the new way of doing housing, so check back if you are wondering about that... 

I got facebook messages from all of my roommates when I was at work saying that they had all gotten their DORMS email.... And I did not.... EEKS! I was definitely freaking to say the least! 

Sadly - we did not have an option to link 8 of us in an apartment together, so we had to split up into two groups. [Previously, future DCPers would line up super early in the morning all together and hope for an apartment together but now you have to fill out a form and you "link"  to other people. We only had the option to link to 6 people, including myself... Its nice that we don't have to be up all night but stinks that we don't even have a chance at being together]

Since I didn't get my e-mail - my group wasn't able to register :/ 

I decided to call the next morning and they told me that I had not been processed yet so there was nothing they could do for me...

EVEN BIGGER FREAKOUT! AGH!

I checked my e-mail constantly that day to see if I had been processed and I had gotten my number so we could register for housing.... NOTHING!

I decided that I would call again the next morning and see if they could help me...
At 6:30 the next morning my cell phone starts ringing and wakes me up, but I don't recognize the number, so I let it go to voice-mail thinking its a wrong number or something... But my phone dings saying I have a new voice-mail...

"Hi Amanda, This is ***** from Walt Disney World College Program, if you could please call me back as soon as possible - we have to discuss a 
discrepancy in your application..." 

I felt like I was having a heart attack... I had no idea what was wrong but it didn't sound good! I grabbed a pen and paper and jotted down the phone number and called back.

Turns out my SSN had been wrong and they needed to correct it... 

30 minutes later, I got my DORMS e-mail and our group was able to register!
