TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

Guys does anyone know how strict clifford chance is in terms of grades.. like do they need 2.1 in every module?

I was always worried about this but it seems like only a select few US firms are that strict with individual modules. As long as you average a 2:1 you have a good chance.

Haven't heard from MoFo but some people have had calls. Haven't heard from Dechert since the app - not sure if anyone has.

Any updates on MoFo and Dechert post-app or Hogan Lovells post-job sim?

I was PFO'd from Dechert on 12/02 so would take no news as good news!

Calls about AC invites?
I couldve sworn I saw people mention Dechert WEs not too long ago.

Did you email to ask or did they just send it? I'm also waiting to hear about DTC outcome but haven't received an email with my scores - applied Dec 3rd

I requested them for it.

I know that the spring scheme is full, but that they're holding interviews for the summer scheme

Just trying to give myself hope that I might still get an offer despite the fact that it’s very likely to be pfo

[Ancika]

Has anyone heard from Hogan Lovells post VI? I know one person said they got an AC invite earlier this week. Did anyone else get one ?

Why do you say that all offers from NRF has been sent out?

Yeah how do you know?

Unrelated but if you guys are looking for a hobby to take your mind off applications and lower your screen time, get a bedazzling kit and bedazzle everything you own. It’s so easy and satisfying. I’ve done 3 lip balms so far xx
