If you apply 14 week ago and heard nothing, then you probably use copyrighted content or content that is not suitable for monetization
What's your niche ? what content do you produce ?

As for me , my content is gaming some videos with commentary and some are not and those with commentary i do commentary in the first minute of the video "explaining to the viewers what they expect to see in the video"
Now it is nearly 3 weeks and i did not hear anything regarding approval , What do you think guys ?

What game do you have recorded ? some game are not acceptable for monetization
Do you use any copyrighted music in the game ?
If you do everything right, you will definitly get monetized within 1 or 2 week
Also keep in mind that you have to comment the WHOLE video

In my channel, I am doing travel videos which is filmed entirely by me. Mine has been under review for 3 months. I guess the problem should be music which I use. They are not copyright music but still I assume that should be the problem. Do you think if I make those specific videos with music private they will approve my channel? Some videos are filmed with original ambient sounds. I can keep them.

Are you sure the music aren't copyrighted ? where did you find the music ? youtube library ?
If your video are entirely filmed by you, you will get definitly monetized
But the problem is you are waithing for 3 month , which is really long, a lot of here are monetized within 2-3 weeks
I think you have done something wrong

Thing is I get music from various YouTube channels. I never had a copy right strike or community guidelines strike though. I get music from YouTube channels such as "vlog no copyright nusic" , "YouTube no copyright music" (not official YouTube music library) and some from a channel called ambient music. I always put credits to original music composers and put their source too. Like their YouTube channel and soundcloud website. I think this is what I am doing wrong. Was thinking about buying themusicbed subscription for my videos as I want high quality music for my videos.
