This is definitely something to keep in mind for when I am a senior and plan on attending LDI. Although I will most likely not get the scholarship, it certainly doesn't hurt to try. LDI is such a great experience to have, and it wouldn't hurt to go for free, that's for sure. I always hear so many good things from people I know who have attended LDI, that I am definitely looking forward to the time I will be able to go - and maybe with a scholarship!

I agree that LDI is an amazing experience if for nothing more than networking. However, I prefer when it's in Vegas because there are more show opportunities that cost about the same as going to Disney. Not to mention that the people who work in Vegas that are too busy to go to Orlando, namely people who work for Cirque or the other shows there, show up for at least one of the day when it is in Vegas.
