TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

I understand the pressure of not hearing back yet. However, often times, GR will review applications in stages and batches. Emailing them will not make them get back to you any faster. Especially now that VS’ are ongoing and there’s a lot of internal work to do. I understand it’s hard, but I suggest waiting till they get back with a response. In the meantime, there are still a couple of direct TCs open, which you could consider applying for. Or alternatively, you could spend the time re-strategising for the next cycle!
Sorry I should have clarified. I meant updating them with my final grades because the applications did not have an option to edit them.
 
I think most of uni have this policy in the handbook- if you achieve half of your modules in the next degree classification (i.e. in your situation: above 70%)- and your overall grade is in the 1.5% margin (some uni is 2%)- then you can submit an application of appeal to the uni: and they will considering your situation. Please check your uni's handbook- this may vary between different universities.
Appreciate this a lot. I meant how do we go about explaining this to a firm if required. I realise I would most likely not have to but I was just being paranoid 🫣
