CESR/COE for Student Visa

Hi! I recently was accepted to a national university in Japan for a 4 year bachelor's degree program. I have enrolled and have already submitted my application for my CESR (Certificate of Eligibility for Status of Residence). The university's website states that it will take 1-2 months to receive my CESR, other sources say it may take up to three months. I found only one anecdote from someone else who was accepted into a Japanaese university who said that it only took 4 weeks total to receive their CESR and student visa.
I was wondering if anyone here has experience applying for/receiving a CESR or has any anecdotal information on about how long the whole process takes. I have heard that the time to receive a COE for a work visa can vary depending on what country you're from/the company sponsoring you/etc--does this hold true for universities as well?
(I'm simply curious--I have more than enough time to obtain my visa before going to Japan. I just hate waiting......)

I'm in the same boat. According to past students at the University and other sources, it usually takes around 6-8 weeks, so I guess that's our timeline on how things usually ago.
Let me know if you stumble upon any more information.
