Hey @ALI-web242, just a heads up: we are all fellow developers here, so nobody in the community can manually 'review' or approve your application.
GitHub’s automated system is extremely picky in 2026. If that certificate doesn't have a clear current date (like 'Spring 2026' or 'Valid until...'), the OCR will likely reject it. Your best bet is to use an official enrollment letter or a recent fee receipt that explicitly shows you are a student right now.

(If this clears up the confusion, please Mark as Answer!)
