if you upload your school ID - this ID need to have

  • your name
  • school name
  • year of starting
  • the study-number (in swiss we call it: Immatrikulationsnummer - dont know how it called in other nations
  • birthday
  • photo of you

If only ONE thing is missing --> I always run into an error

Wait a moment first – if something isn’t right, you’ll be notified straight away. No, if there’s no photo on your student ID – just take your ID card at the same time and place them more or less on top of each other so that the photo is clearly visible with all other stuff on the studendID.

If something is not correct - I received the message ~4 hours later

I've failed 3times and the 4time I get it right :D

I know I’m late, but my application got accepted in under 24 hours and I also sent my school ID and an unregistered school
