Disney released a statement Thursday saying due to the coronavirus pandemic, it’s unclear when it will be able to reopen Disney-owned apartments where students in the program typically live.
The internship program was first suspended in March when Disney closed its theme parks and hotels.
Disney is expected to begin reopening its theme parks to the public on July 11.
