Student Visa - Step 1 complete...

Soooo.... Just my luck... The French Embassy has adopted a new, more rigorous procedure for student visas... Among other ridiculous requests from a very user-unfriendly site (http://www.liban.campusfrance.org/) I had to get my grades from the Lebanese Baccalaureate II (1999)!!!

Anyway, the hardship is now behind me, as my "dossier" has been "validee"... (yes, I am sitting for French courses...)... The gentleman who interviewed me was a very nice person who's son attended INSEAD as well (his family name escapes me though...)... He congratulated me on getting into INSEAD, and even drew me a little map of Fonty, and was very helpful in providing some tips on accommodation... now that is a whole other story I am sure I'll get to recounting soon...

My appointment at the Embassy has been scheduled for Friday the 25th of Sept... 9:45 AM... All my papers are in order, and i should get the visa stamped before the end of Oct... So I might be able to go to the INSEAD open day on Oct 31'st in Fonty...

Cheers
