<p>Can anyone recommend a good semester-long program in Russia, preferably Moscow? I am looking primarily to study literature and philosophy while there, in addition to following an intensive language program. My school currently has a list of approved programs, but I am wondering if there are any out there which are better.</p>

<p>Bard has a fabulous program in St. Petersburg. My daughter just came back from an 8 week intensive program at Smolney. Bard did an incredible job with this program. My daughter learned so much Russian; she loved her homestay; the many excursions were fabulous. The staff at Bard and in St. Petersburg were incredible. We are so grateful she had the opportunity to participate in this challenging and rewarding program. For information, see
