Global Students

These students come to us through partner institutions in Barbados, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Peru. The Disney program is an immersive learning experience in which students function independently while living and working with people from all over the world at one of the world’s largest and most ¿ì²¥ÊÓƵful entertainment companies. Students develop knowledge, skills, and values through experiential learning outside a traditional academic setting.
