GitHub Student Developer Pack application error — what should I do?

[u/VisualArm807]

Hey everyone!
I recently applied for the GitHub Student Developer Pack, but I ran into some issues during the application process.
GitHub asks for location information to help verify my student status, but I’m currently not at my school because it’s on holiday. I also uploaded a picture of my student ID as proof of enrollment, but I blurred out my face for privacy reasons.
When I first clicked the submit button, I got an error message saying that something had gone wrong. So I tried submitting the application again, and this time GitHub told me that my application was currently being processed.
However, I haven’t received any email confirming this, and my GitHub Education dashboard still shows the option to apply instead of indicating that my application is pending.
I’ve already submitted a support ticket to GitHub Education, but I wanted to ask here as well:
Is there anything else I can or should do right now?
Could the application still be processing even though the dashboard doesn’t show a pending status?
How long did it take for GitHub Education Support to respond to your ticket?
I’m really looking forward to using the Student Developer Pack, so I’d appreciate any advice or experiences you can share.
Thanks in advance!
