Hi everyone,

The TCLA team are working on a new series of webinars to help you all 'get ahead' for the new application cycle. We would really love to hear the kind of content you guys would find the most useful.

If you have a moment to complete the poll and tell us which of the options available would be your top three for us to cover, we would be incredibly grateful!

Better still, if you guys have specific suggestions for us you wish to share, we would be delighted to hear them. Please leave a comment in this thread detailing your suggestion and please tag me by typing '@AliceG'.
