Tentative date for graduation

I was told that the graduation should be held after 29th of June 2009 as 29th is supposed to be the last day for spring semester. Suggested dates are 30th of June or 1st of July.

Further confirmation has to be done with Moslanka (because the Dean clearly stated that the university has no control over the date and venue). I tried to contact Dr. Saman, but was told that he is now out of the country, until 18th of January 2009.

Therefore airtickets should be booked 28th of June - 4th of July to be on the safe side.

This post concerns all of us, so please take the time to read it. Last week, Gerard reminded us to hand in the biodata form by 21st November 2008 but sadly the response was not that convincing.
So during the last meeting, the issue was brought up again and this time we have decided to make the procedure easier, more economical and accessible. You can now submit your details online.

Russian Visa Application (4 steps)

Russian Visa Application (4 steps)
This is a must read blogpost for everyone. Please take note.

Step 1 of 4. What is a Russian Visa?
A visa to the Russian Federation is a document, permitting stay in Russia for a specific period of time. A visa lists entry/exit dates, your vital information, passport details, and has two photos stapled to it. Please note, that your Russian visa is an exit permit just like it’s an entry permit: if you lose it or stay over your designated departure date, leaving the country could be more troublesome than entering it.
