Language GCSE requirement for Russian Studies & Politics MA

Hi all,
I'm looking to apply for the Russian Studies & Politics MA course at the University of Edinburgh next year, by that time I should posses 3 A-Levels in Government & Politics, History and Religious Studies, alongside a good proficiency in the Russian language (from tutoring). I do not hold a foreign language GCSE and I am wondering how strict this university is on that requirement. May there be any way around it if can demonstrate a good proficiency in the Russian Language?

Many thanks!

i also study russian and politics. i think if youre planning on taking the beginning route there shouldnt be a problem as long as you get required grades.
