Selenium web driver does not select a value in drop down

[reidm...@gmail.com]

Hello,

Method:

  public ss selectType(String Type){
   WebElement myElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath ("//select[@data-val-required='Type is Required.']"));
   Select dropdown= new Select(myElement);
   dropdown.selectByVisibleText(Type);
       System.out.println("Select type" + Type);
   return this;
  }

@Test

  selectSRype("Enroll");

When I run my test, it should select the value Enroll from the drop down field. But it does not. I also don't get any error. It did print the message in console too. During run, I can see field is being clicked by value is not being selected.  How can I select a value from drop down field?

Please advise.

If would be helpful if you could share the html code of your dropdown.
