When will I get notification of first screening for undergraduate .
I have already been recommended by Consulate General of JAPAN in Mumbai but they wrote that I have to clear EMBASSY’s selection to pass first screening . Today is 16th August meaning results should have already been announced by now but I have not received any update if I was rejected or accepted.
Does not receiving mail from Embassy means I am rejected ?
Dear sir,
We will check and get to know about it.
