The best part was thatThe best part was that, in the process of filling in the form, I got stuck with a question that required an upload which I made several attempts and then an email came in explaining that you are working on sorting it out for me. That felt like miracle for me as I was in-between meeting on that day and had to stay up late on campus. That was so satisfying
