Message: <blockquote data-quote="thesubway2024" data-source="post: 186911" data-attributes="member: 37824">Hi everyone.I am a recent graduate in the process of researching firms and hoping to secure a vac scheme soon, after which I am hoping to secure a TC. However, I am scared and disheartened about my circumstances and whether all my hard work will be for nothing. I have a CCJ for unpaid rent for my university accommodation from 2021. This all went on during covid-19 and I was unaware how much the issue was escalating until I one day found a CCJ on a credit assessment. I have been repaying it slowly since  but I still have a long way to go (somewhere around £4k due to the extra legal fees and charges I have incurred). No one knew about this at the time - I did not tell anyone until last year. The reason why this happened was because my father was meant to pay for the accommodation but we had a falling out and I was unable to pay it myself. I have a number of mental health issues as well as at the time undiagnosed neurodivergence that prevented me from dealing with this appropriately. I was also 19 when this first happened and had just moved to the country less than a year prior - I was scared and did not know what to do.I am concerned the SRA will never even consider admitting me as a solicitor. Should I do the early character and suitability assessment to know for sure whether my dreams can never be achieved?Any advice would be much appreciated.</blockquote>
