First a warm "Hello" to the ProZ forum!

As a newbie here, I am in the process of getting my profile complete... And I encountered complications

You can get credentials in your language pairs, right? But my problem is that my University (Swansea University, Wales, UK) is not listed in the drop down menu, or at least I could not find it (at first I thought that it was maybe "ABER", because Swansea in Welsh is Abertawe, but that was Aberstwyth)...

So I wanted to ask whether any of you had the same problem?

I could also take the University of Vienna, because I also got a Master's degree from there, but not in translation, only English and American Studies, which was monolingual, so I don't know if it counts as credentials for a language pair?

Any help or suggestion is appreciated!

Enter name in 'Other' Oct 19, 2016

Don't use the dropdown list, just type it in (in the field 'Other'). That way it will display correctly and exactly the way you want it to.
