Reapplying for Spring Weeks
Hello guys,
I am a second year student at a top target in the UK (Oxbridge/LSE). Unfortunately, in my first year I was unable to land a Spring Week. I have now started applying for summer internships, however not sure about chances as I am not diversity and require visa sponsorship. I was wondering about potentially reapplying to Spring Weeks as I will most probably do a masters anyways. What do you guys think is the way to do so? Should I put intended masters in my CV even though I am just a second-year student? Thanks a lot!

Have you thought about why you were rejected first and worked to address those weaknesses? I think most investment banks wouldn’t care if you did that but I wouldn’t do it unless you address why you didn’t get any last application season. Wishing you luck though 💪
Honestly sounds like I am making excuses but in general I was late. Was not ready at all and was applying a week or so late lol.
Do you think it is a good idea to apply again or should I just recruit for summers this year and then again next year? Thanks.
I mean thats a fine reason, you weren't aware of IB then
I mean, I was at uni last year in the same boat as you and missed spring weeks. I hated my course at my old uni and have moved also to a target uni and am reapplying for Springs so i’m kind of in a similar boat hahaha. The main thing is applying early and not cocking up the online assessments. After that it’s up to fate
Mind if I DM?
Icl a week late is not late enough for it to be the only reason of not landing any spring week. May be overlooking something else mate.
Could work if you did a decent first year summer and have good society and volunteering stuff. And can reasonably extend your degree grad date to 2027.
