:thumbsup:
I did it again!!! :jaw:
I just got my email a few minutes ago. I have been selected (again) to move on to the next round of essays. :woohoo: I hope I make the Mom's Panel this time. It says that if selected as a finalist, there will be a phone interview the week of October 27th. If selected as a panelist after that, the training will be Dec 5-9. OH THE AGONY!!!

Time to put my thinking cap on, pull out my thesaurus and get writing :geek: :write:

Anyone else hear back??????

Congrats. Good luck with the second round - hopefully you make it this time.

If they sent out all the second round notices at the same time, I am almost certainly out of the running then. I am hoping that those trickle out over the next day or so.

Congratulations! :pixie:

Last year, didn't they send out rejection notices too about the same time? I haven't heard anything. Maybe we will hear one way or another in a couple of days.

I think they sent everything out over a couple days, acceptance and rejection both. I'd look, but I am in the process of switching emails (and yes, I used my new one for the app, I just haven't cleaned out the archives from the old), but I'm pretty sure that the whole process took about 3 days.

(I'm honestly thinking that I should have DW apply next year - she probably has a slightly better chance of being accepted than I do.)

I just sent in my 2nd round essay answers. Now the torturous waiting begins. I'm so nervous. I find myself reading my answers over and over wondering if it was enough. Oh well... :marg:

Good luck Jennifer! I submitted mine last week. I've been thinking about it every day, lol! However, I've decided that whether I make it to the next round or not, I answered the questions the best I could and I don't think I would change anything. We'll just have to wait and see!

I never heard anything back either. Has anyone gotten a "rejection" notice yet? Maybe they aren't doing that this time.

Congratulations to all of you that have been put through. :congrats:

I just got my "official" rejection letter - has anyone been updated on moving on? That's probably a pretty silly question if they are still interviewing, huh - I'd guess you wouldn't be able to tell us at this point! Good luck to all who made it into the next round! :mickey:

ILoveLegos
10-21-2008, 04:48 PM
:mickey: Add me to the "officially rejected" list too! :blush: No worries, I'm not even a mom anyway. I must add Disney is a class act - they added the very nice gesture that now thise who entered the contest qualify to be a member of the Mickey Moms Club next year too! :cloud9:
For me it was fun dreamin' for a while about being a member of the mom's panel, but I am living my real dreams already - I can't complain.

Continued best wishes to those "second round hopefuls" - May all your Disney Dreams Come True!

I haven't gotten word either way yet. Those who are chosen to go on to the next round will receive an email the week of the 27th (I have to wait another few days????? the agony!!!!!!) to schedule a phone interview. I believe the panel will be chosen and notified by November 15thish (this date seems to be in my head so I may be wrong). And the "training" trip is set for December 5-9.

why do i torture myself like this????? I think I've aged a few years because of this. :D

CUZ I LOVE DISNEY....... :thumbsup:

I know how you feel Jennifer! I keep checking my e-mail, hoping to see something from Disney. :blush:
Yesterday, I got something from Disney Shopping, which made my heart skip a beat - until I realized what it was. :thedolls: LOL.

I came across another board where a lot of people are waiting to hear back. They're speculating we may hear tomorrow since phone interviews start Monday. Hopefully we'll hear soon! :fingers:

Congratulations! :thumbsup: I applied as well and made it to round 2 but I haven't heard anything so I guess I didn't move to the next round. I'm really disappointed:( but I guess there's always next year. Good luck to all of those who made it to round 3 and please continue to post so we know how it's going.

I'm crushed. :fit: I didn't receive a round 3 email. I was out on Friday and didn't check my emails until today. I'm holding on to the hope that work blocked the email and that I can go and search for the email and have it released. (no email from WDW has been blocked before but, a girl can hope can't she???)

Everything happens for a reason and there's always next year right?

So for those of you who made it, I will have to live vicariously through you! Details, details, I need details! Good Luck to those of you who moved to the next round. I'll be rooting for you... remember the little people!!! :thumbsup:

Jennifer,
I'm really sorry that you did not receive "the email" either. I am hoping that you find the email in your blocked items soon. I keep hoping that maybe they sent the emails out in cycles and mine is yet to come. :shrug: I know that is highly unlikey but as you said a girl can always hope right! I keep telling myself that there is always next year but it is still so disappointing. :( Anyway, thanks for posting and letting us know and again I truly hope that "the email" is there for you.

I applied on the very first day and to this very email have not heard anything! Nothing in spams, etc., and really thought I would at least have heard something.
