TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2026-27

Spoke to grad rec last week and the sentiment was kindof like "if it is not in already, get it in ASAP"

The application opened on the 1st September I think. I’m not disbelieving what you’ve said but for some people to go into ‘panic mode’, and potentially cause others to, about a rolling deadline 13 days into a 130 day application window doesn’t seem to make too much sense on paper but Im happy to hold my hands up if grad rec truly are sticking to that sentiment

I havent received sidley 1st stage online test yet but i subitted on 2nd september for WVS should i assume PFO? if people are receiving tests

Same here

I don't think you should assume PFO, the next stage isn't selective, their website says they'll only check if you meet the 'eligibility criteria' before progressing. Think it's more likely they're just sending out the tests slowly to spread out the review process

it's crazy. i think white & case also say 64 for each module, at least that's what I heard at an online event from one of their graduate recruitment, im not sure if its explicitly set out though
