St Andrews is an experience I am so thankful for. From my first year, the transition to a different country was so easy as the student body is very welcoming. Most of the lecturers, especially in the Psychology and Management department go out of their way to help you even for the smallest of matters. I used to do Economics as well but dropped it due to the rigid course structure and more unapproachable faculty. The university provided student accommodation is very well furnished and helps provide a great sense of community, especially as a new student. However, the residential prices are quite steep if you want to stay central in St.Andrews. One of my favourite things about this uni are the traditions like May Dip and Raisin, which really bring together the uni experience and the many many balls and events that help alleviate the slight boredom one may feel due to living in a small town. In that aspect, St. Andrews is secluded, having very few shopping options and doesn’t even have a train station close by, which makes travel a bit tough.
