Translating Russian high school credits into the UK system

[Emily Saunders]

Hello all,

I just wanted to send an update regarding my student who needed help  
translating her Russian credits for the UK system.  She was accepted at  
TWO universities in the UK (hooray!) and now is in the process of  
applying for financial aid and scholarships to help her make it  
financially possible to study at one of them.  I want to thank all who  
wrote in with advice on how to deal with her credits.  You eased the  
process immensely.  And if anyone has any suggestions of where to look  
for financial aid and scholarships for foreign students studying in the  
UK (she'll be studying architecture), please let me know offline.

Thank you all again,

Emily
