Hi
I applied for my study permit on 9th april and 2 weeks later I got the request for my passport and another week later I had my passport stamped with visa. It really depends on when you apply for the visa. I applied in April which is considered early and there is less rush but I am assuming that you applied in May and it is the recommended time to apply for visa. It also depends on how your application is presented. Alot of factor like tuition fees, marks, eligibility, sop and how accurate your information is determines your visa processing time.

I applied through paper application at vfs dubai. There is no set requirement for marks but your marks should be adquate in the program you have joined. For example if you score passing marks in bio and have applied for bio tech then they will scrutinise your eligibility. That's what I meant when I said about marks. Also they consider that your peevious study is related to the program you are going to study. For example if you are a science students and apply for a commerce program then that will also require consideration.
Of course what I have said above is a possibility and even if you don't meet above requirements they might still decide to grant you a visa for any other merits in your profile.
