St Andrews is a unique and captivating place, and the University is a key part of its charm. Seven centuries of history link the students with the town, leading to the ancient and yet modern institution apparent today. For those interested in visiting or moving to St Andrews, we recommend taking a look at the town information, which describes the facilities and opportunities open to the local c...ommunity.
The University of St Andrews embraces sustainable development across all of its operations, fully integrating it into all that we do. We have a mission to be recognised locally and internationally as a world-class institution that leads by example, actively implementing imaginative solutions and initiatives that achieve the aims of a more sustainable society. Our three-part strategy to become carbon neutral for energy production:

• Behaviour change: encouraging reduction in energy consumption such as the inter-hall energy competition in halls of residence which last year achieved savings of 48 tonnes of CO2.
• Energy efficiency and investment: ensuring highest energy efficiency in the built environment.
• Micro and macro renewable energy: investing in solar thermal heating on our residential and science buildings, solar photovoltaics (PV) electrical generation and ground source heat pumps on site. Our macro renewables plan will lead to a carbon reduction of 27,000 tonnes per annum through development of the Guardbridge Energy Centre and Kenly wind farm.

Life here is centred around an internationally renowned teaching system, but it is the huge range of additional opportunities only St Andrews can provide which creates the unique experience. Because St Andrews is a small university, students have the opportunity to interact with staff, integrate with each other, and to feel a sense of belonging. They are active in politics, charity fundraising, volunteering locally, and in playing a governance role in how their services are run. We have a centuries-old tradition of bringing the brightest minds around the world to share their ideas. Here, as nowhere else, curious students can meet the best scholars and teachers from around the world, and crucially find the thinking space to question what they are taught.
St Andrews is the most international Scottish university with staff and students from over 120 nationalities. Students from all over the world, and from a wide range of backgrounds, come to study with us, and many find St Andrews becomes a second home to them. We celebrate our student diversity and support many pathways for international students to join us, whether they are applying through an exchange or study abroad programme or for study through our many different degree routes. St Andrews encourages students from different backgrounds to apply and offers a number of scholarships for international students. Studying at St Andrews offers a truly unique experience: you will live and study in the intimacy of a small town, but be surrounded by peers and teachers from all over the world who will cultivate your cultural awareness.
