    Yeah the email said you’re not guaranteed an AC place despite meeting the VI benchmark (I applied for London) But all ACs are in person, they pay for transport (it said including flights up to a certain price) so I don’t think they’d give an online option

    I guess there’s no harm in checking, I emailed on 6/10 to ask whether I could apply for the winter vac scheme as I hadn’t heard back and didn’t get a reply. But I got the rejection on 31/10, so maybe that was their response

    I eventually got a pfo in late October. I’m not sure if you could still be on hold, but when I spoke to grad rec at a uni event they said something like 2 people were recruited in that window and that it was really competitive.
