Changes to Student Visa requirements

[Goldberg, Stuart H]

Happily, the site you give appears to be a commercial travel and visa site masquerading as an embassy site.  I would of course call the consulate to be sure.

Best,
Stuart

There seem to be two Russian Consulate websites:

http://russianconsulate.org/russian-visas.html

http://www.ruscon.org/visa_dep_ENG.html

The next question is: which one is the real one?
