Hi Andrea! Thank you for starting this thread. I'm surprised it hasn't blown up haha! I'm an international student applying from India for TCs in the UK in the penultimate year of my law degree. The sponsoring visa situation - tell me about it!!

I applied for the Links India internship but did not get through. I've applied to CC, and A&O, and have only got PFOs
Waiting to hear from TW as I apply to more firms this month along with some US firms in Jan/ Feb and beyond.

It's my first application cycle so I'm learning a LOT as I write and navigate applications

[QUOTE="Samridhi Jain, post: 157247, member: 21329"] Hi Andrea! Thank you for starting this thread. I'm surprised it hasn't blown up haha! I'm an international student applying from India for TCs in the UK in the penultimate year of my law degree. The sponsoring visa situation - tell me about it!! I applied for the Links India internship but did not get through. I've applied to CC, and A&O, and have only got PFOs :( Waiting to hear from TW as I apply to more firms this month along with some US firms in Jan/ Feb and beyond. It's my first application cycle so I'm learning a LOT as I write and navigate applications :) [/QUOTE]
