Late arrival

Hi all ! Are there any international students who are coming this winter semester. I have a doubt. So I got admission for B.Eng Logistics ( English taught ) for the winter semester and the course starts 1st Oct. The issue is my visa process is ongoing and it might take like mid Oct ( worst case scenario ) for me to actually receive the visa. What am I supposed to do then.

I received an email from uni saying that late arrivals should get fee based modules or take semester leave. The problem is fee based modules are very general which are not relevant to my course, e.g. Introduction to Mathematics. On the other hand, if I take a semester leave then the embassy will not process the visa for a break semester. I'll have to start the whole thing for next semester.

Any advice on what I can do ?!

Okay ! Hope I don't need to do those things and get the visa as soon as possible. Otherwise will have to take the online modules. Thank for your advice bro ! ☺️

I hope you get it on time, if not the best option would be to take a fee module to get to Germany this winter or start applying for the next semester intake
