Hiya [USER=3642]@W5690[/USER]

So great that you could get several applications in this cycle. In my experience, I’ve generally only followed up if about a month has passed since submitting my application (and I usually wait until after the application deadline has closed before sending such emails). Right now, a lot of firms are still working through a high volume of applications, and responses to applicants may take some time. That said, if you do decide to follow up, you could send something like this:

Subject: Follow-Up on Application Status

Dear [Recruiter's/Team's Name],

I hope you’re well.

I wanted to follow up on my application to the [spring/summer/winter vacation scheme] submitted on [date]. I appreciate that your team may be handling a high volume of applications, but I wanted to check if there might be an update on my application status.

Many thanks for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
[Your Full Name]

This structure should keep your application polite and relatively concise. Hope that helps and hope you hear back from your firms soon
