Hi everyone,
I’m a non-NLU Indian law student currently entering my penultimate year (4th year of a 5-year integrated programme). I’ve completed some internships — including at district courts, High Courts, and some judicial internships — and I’m now seriously interested in applying for vacation schemes in the UK.

However, I’ll be honest — I feel quite lost. Being from a non-NLU background, I haven’t had much structured exposure to how the application process works internationally. I don't know where to begin: the firms to target, timelines, drafting cover letters, or even building relevant experiences for UK law firms.
If anyone here is willing to offer mentorship, share their experience, or even guide me a little on how to build networks and navigate this path, I would be extremely grateful. Any resources, personal insights, or connections you can share would genuinely make a difference to me right now.
Thank you so much in advance!
Warmly,
Ananya
