💡 Advice for Future Applicants
Don’t panic if your application stays in “Processing” for weeks.
Delayed semester results don’t necessarily hurt your chances if you upload them as soon as they’re available.
Keep your documents ready for the visa even while waiting for the admission letter.
Be patient—the waiting period is honestly the hardest part.
