If you have a VS secured for Spring but prior to that have already sent off a bunch of applications for Spring Schemes, at what point would it be advisable to ask for your application to instead be considered for the Summer Scheme?

Should you wait until you have secured the offer then ask? Or maybe explain at interview? Or just email Grad Rec as early as possible (at the application stage) to move your application from the Spring to the Summer Scheme?

Wait to see if you are invited to interview, and at that stage ask whether you can convert your application over to another programme (eg ahead of you booking in for an interview).
