Hi guys! I am really glad you posted this topic. I think there are many Russians, but we are not as supportive as, for example, Brazilians are. Are you just coming from Russia to study to US? Nice :) I am from Russia originally, but I have been living in the US for about 4 years. This year I am applying to LLM program, and I would not say it is a piece of cake for some reason. I dunno what they are looking at... Anyways, davaite druzhit' :)

By the way, if you have questions regarding visas. I think I can give an advice. Good luck!
