In addition to the change of locale, the following changes (including some "Apprentice firsts") have been made in the show's structure for the sixth season:
- Candidates must earn the right to live in the provided Beverly Hills mansion by simply winning the weekly task. Otherwise, the candidates will live in "Tent City", a location across the hedge from the mansion's swimming pool.
- This season at the request of Trump is a battle between the "haves" (in the Mansion) and the "have nots" (in Tent City).
- The project manager from the winning team will continue to be the project manager for that team until the team loses.
- The project manager from the winning team will be allowed to attend and participate in the boardroom firings for the losing team.
