TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[lawstudent2]

Hi! No, it isn’t just for penultimate-year students. It’s open to anyone who is in the penultimate year of a law degree or above (so final years and graduates are all eligible too).

Thanks a lot, I just wanted to check

Dechert are indeed rolling, however, this is only revealed upon starting their application process: "We recruit on a rolling basis and make offers to successful candidates before the final application deadlines, so we encourage candidates to apply as early as possible to avoid disappointment."

Yes I did, for each of my applications I try and attend an Open Day/Application Webinar and complete the Forage wherever possible - makes writing the application much much easier

Does Linklaters review Vac scheme apps on a rolling basis? I think NO - but cannot see on their website

I'm applying this week. If you want to apply you should too. Its a rolling deadline but it only opened a week ago, it's still extremely early in the application cycle you will be fine.

Hi! On their FAQs page on their website, it states that it is non-rolling.

Do you review applications on a rolling basis?

We do not recruit on a rolling basis, all applications are reviewed once the deadline for the position has passed.

Hi Everyone,


I know the new cycle has just opened, and I really want to make the most of it. This is my third cycle, and while I feel my writing has improved, I would be so grateful if someone who has received an offer could spare some time to review my answers and share any feedback on how I can improve further. Of course, anyone else who is willing to help is also very welcome, any guidance would mean a lot.

Thank you so much in advance!
