I'm not sure about the prices but Moscow is a more 'education oriented' city. There is a major university down town and you know that would be very 'international' friendly. St. Petersburg is a bit more tourist oriented though it may still be a good place to learn. I just think you would find more suitable resources for a student learning abroad in Moscow rather than St. Petersburg.
