Lovely place to study. The libraries are full of rare documents, very complete. There are various accommodations so adapted to everyone. The surrounding is full of surprises (landscape...). The student union is amazingly big, we can easily find a suitable society !

I was well helped by felliws, professors and administratives to complete all the required tasks.
Going to this unique university was an excellent decision. This is due to the nature of the academic courses, the diverse people that you meet and the beauty of the surroundings.
The University has excellent facilities, staff and is situated in a great town. The town is small, as is the University. This is good as you don't get lost in the crowd. There are plenty of societies to make friends and overall its a great place to be. It has a world renowned reputation being one of the oldest universities in the world. As a result, the research ongoing here is also world class. There is a varied life in town driven by a very varied student body, with alot of international students helping make St Andrews special.
Our Student Union is very exclusive if you compare it to other universities especially because we are not a part of the NUS. Our Principal is very rude and dismissive of students when they do not agree with her or share the same views which I think is unacceptable. The town itself is wonderful but the lack of spaces in the library is appalling. You never get a seat in the library so you end up studying back in your flat. The professors themselves are usually very nice and caring.
It is good. The facilities are all top notch and the teaching is up to a good standard. The nightlife can be a bit repetitive but there are some nice bars if you are looking for a change. I would recommend it to a friend looking for a more intimate university.

Mental health support is good and student services provide valuable help.
The town is beautiful, the staff are adorable and do a lot to make sure you are feeling okay with your work. The nightlife isn’t like any other, if you’re looking to stay out until 6am you’ll have trouble in the town where everything closes at 2am.
Lovely campus which is based in the town hi the seaside and St. Andrews golf courses.Lots of student support on the course. Sport facilities are good with many different teams and societies to join for all abilities. Student union is good but drinks are quite pricy.
Student accommodation clean and secure, always someone around if you have problems. Great campus, everything within walking distance and allows time to get to each class. Very well trained academic staff in the geography department, willing to help with any of your queries and very quick response time. Good provision of field classes to gain real life experience of working in the field. A great range of topics covered to develop interest in wider areas. A range of activities provided in the curriculum, allowing you to develop many skills for your career ahead. Good disability department, provides extra help when needed and never judgemental. Very fair marking and great feedback on coursework. Overall good uni experience.
The whole university is very compact so everything is a short distance away. The town itself is beautiful, and most of the uni buildings are lovely too. The gym is really good and there are so many sports teams to join in with it's hard to keep track! The library is a bit small and doesn't open 24/7 but there are plenty of other places to study as well and some do stay open 24 hours.

Student services are really good and have lots of ideas to help in many different situations. The wardens in halls are also really friendly and always available to talk. Everyone feels very approachable and keen to listen to and help you with problems.
A great university with excellent teaching. Also has a good network system for different career choices too as the lecturers and professors are all experts in their field and welcome students for placements and projects.
Transport system totally awesome
Always amazed about the transport system because it is fast,cheap and reliable
The food(s) is also nice because it contains the necessary nutrients students need for their day to day activities
St Andrews itself is a beautiful town to live in, the beach, the sea, the incredible historic monuments and of course the famous golf course all help to make St Andrews an incredible place to live! The courses I have taken so far have been challenging occasionally but always engaging and interesting. I would recommend St Andrews to any student who wishes to work hard, push themselves and deepen their passion for learning.
Beautiful campus, increadible research facilities and researchers. The university makes sure that there is always an abundance of internationally renouned speakers every week. The student union organised best events, there is something fun to attend every day.

Doctor services not provided by university directly but they do provide access to the general practice.
Support for international students:
Help offered in all areas, whether it’s academic or personal.
Teachers take time and care about every student. The level of teaching is very high! I also enjoy the fact that the town is very small and easy to get everywhere.
The University is spread around the town which is beautiful and very quaint. It is a small town and quite insular but international at the same time. I study Arabic, German and English. I find the lectures useful at times but they can be a bit irrelevant.
