          I sent this message out at the beginning of June, but I
          received only one response.   I think most everyone had left
          or were in the midst of leaving for Phoenix and had no time
          to send advice.   I am sending the message out again.
          Hopefully someone can make suggestions for me (I am still
          struggling with this).

          Thanks!!!

          I hope some Russia / Former Soviet Union experts can help me
          out.   I have a transcript to evaluate for transfer credit
          from uchilische, my first.   The student attended the school
          after completing upper secondary school.

          First of all, I need to verify the school's accreditation.
          If anyone can tell me anything about the Kystym Nursing
          School of the Ministry of Public Health, I would appreciate
          it.

          Secondly, I am not sure how much and what kind of credit is
          generally awarded for work completed at a uchilische, if
          any is awarded at all.  The student did a three-year degree
          in nursing, but I do not know whether academic credit would
          be apropriate or if the degree merits only technical credit.
          Any comments or advice would be well appreciated.

          Thank you in advance for your assistance.

          Sincerely,
