That’s an unfortunate quirk of Vantage - they never update from “submitted” so it’s impossible to tell from that page I’m afraid. It’s really unclear. If you applied separately though then I wouldn’t give up hope. Sounds like they’ve just run through a batch of open day-ers so unless you get...- Tattyasha

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26
Well, I didn’t think I would but I did one last year that I didn’t convert due to number of places. They asked me to apply again. I said I’m guessing direct TC would be best so as not to take up a VS space again and they said they try and get everyone to do the VS anyway regardless of how they...- Tattyasha

30 apps already - you’re an absolute machine! Well done you. This is bound to be your year 🤞 W&C didn’t open until 1 Oct so double check that. However, I can confirm they’ve been quite clever/sneaky. The link to the test is contained within the automated application submission email you get as...- Tattyasha

Morning all! Ropes and Gray. Advice given was variable and nobody seemed to have consensus so I took the opportunity to ask Ropes directly for their input. Maya very kindly came back to me a minute ago with very detailed clarification around what they want. Ultimately, tie back to your own...- Tattyasha
