Question on Education Visa approval process duration 

I plan to apply for a Education visa and want to know if my current visa period from the country I am applying from is sufficient enough. As I heard traveling during the application can jeopardize it. 

Does it really take 2 months or does it depend per nationality? I've done some research but came up with mixed answers.
