Wow, I am so happy for you, I just gave my biometrics on 1st December, it was updated same day, I haven't received any email from them, were you receiving emails or you were just checking your account daily?

When I received my biometrics validity letter through email, it included my application number. I linked it online and started checking the account every now and then until it was suddenly approved. Now I should receive the letter of passport request through email soon and then print it and go to vfs, but as I said because of the holiday it might take a little while.

But in general, once you receive the biometrics validity letter through email, this means that the decision is made and will be shown in your account within the next 1-2 days. The first time I applied and got rejected back in August, I received the biometrics validity letter one day before the decision showed up, and so did this time, one day after the letter. So you don't have to check your account until you receive the letter then start checking regularly.

I applied for a bachelor's program as I have just finished high school. You give in all the required documents for your application normally as you would online, and yes it is inside wafi mall. It costs around 600 dhs with the biometrics I think Im not sure.

A ghost update is when you see something change in the status of the application but it doesn't give you a straight-up answer.
It means that maybe the decision is near or maybe just that the process is successfully taking place.
