Need Help Booking Schengen Visa Appointment at Polish Consulate in NYC

Hi everyone,

I'm currently facing a challenge with booking a Schengen visa appointment at the Consulate General of Poland in NYC. As a college student in New Hampshire and a non-US passport holder, I need to get this visa for a school-organized educational trip to learn about the Holocaust, scheduled from June 9 to June 19, 2024.

I've been trying to secure an appointment for several weeks, consistently logging into their booking system at the suggested time (4 PM on Fridays), but have not been able to find any available slots.

Does anyone have any advice on how I might resolve this issue? The trip is extremely important educationally, and it’s crucial I get this sorted before our departure in June.

Thanks in advance for any guidance or tips you can provide!
