Thread: Pushkin Institute

Hello to all, I'm new to the forum and I would appreciate any information about the Pushkin Institute of Russian Language, as I intend to go there next year to study russian.
I have read posts on the russian language courses at MGU, but I think they are more expensive than the ones at the Pushkin Institute. Can anyone help me? I'd like to know what the school is like, if the course is good, etc.

I had a look round the Pushkin last summer. It's dilapidated - even by Moscow standards - but I'm assured by reliable sources that the teaching is excellent. Diplomatic staff study Russian there.

Thanks for your reply! Someone had told me the school was a bit disorganized but I didn't know it was also dilapidated... Maybe that's why their courses are cheaper! Anyway, if the teaching is good, I guess that's what matters.
