    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    I just got an AC invite for LL, and mine was at 66% on hold last time I checked. I know sometimes it is said that 66% means rejection, but in my experience this is not the case necessarily! I also applied a long time ago, I would say mid October from memory.

    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2024-5

    Sorry as this reply is probably too late, but I only just saw this. I believe Weil used to do a direct TC but but owing to the fact they basically filled most places each year from the VS, they decided to stop with the direct TC - I don't know what year they stopped though, this may be first...

    from rejection to success

    Thank you so much! This whole application process can be tough and honestly sometimes my motivation dwindles, but we are all going through this together and I find knowing that there is someone out there that relates to the struggles is very comforting in a way. You are strong for keeping at it...

    from rejection to success

    I just read this thread for some motivation because I have been feeling pretty down about the whole application cycle so far. It really is hard to keep trying in the face of rejections or even just having that belief that every app you send will be rejected. I honestly relate completely to...

    Yeah this did confuse me. I think they are technically non-rolling as although they review apps before deadline, they will review all submitted apps. I went to a Weil event this week and they again confirmed that all apps submitted pre-deadline will be reviewed.
