TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

I’ve seen a few offers on LinkedIn and a couple of people I know got SH VS too but they all seem to be for spring. I haven’t seen any SVS offers. Best of luck to everyone waiting on SH!​
Thank you so much! Tbh I had a feeling it was too late for it to be a positive offer
 
MoFo 83 days since app
Dechert 79 days since app
DWF 91 days post app

Has anyone heard from these firms Dechert (summer) and DWF especially? I know MoFo has reached out to people and I'm not sure if they bother sending out PFOs. I'm getting STRESSED.
Dechert sent summer WEs from as far back as Jan. I’m pretty sure cos I got mine in Jan as one of the final WEs for the Spring VS. Most summer WEs were in Feb and ACs have all been running for summer across Feb and March (based on all the posts I remember seeing on the forum).

If it’s anything like the Winter and Spring VSs I’m thinking they send the bulk of post app PFOs out in one go after all WEs and ACs have finished. As for MoFo they have been doing interviews for a few weeks now but idk if they send PFOs. First stage interviews were sent this time last month.​
