Teaching began in the community of St Andrews in 1410 and the University was formally constituted by the issue of Papal Bull in 1413.

The University is now one of Europe's most research intensive seats of learning - over a quarter of its turnover comes from research grants and contracts.

The University of St. Andrews is one of the most beautiful universities and campuses to visit and explore. It is the third oldest university in the English speaking world and the oldest university in Scotland, founded in 1413. Its motto is …”For Ever to be the BEST!” And is it ever! St. Andrews is made up of a variety of different institutions and three colleges. The University of St. Andrews has had several notable attendees including, the Prince and Princess of Wales. The Prince of Wales, Prince William was taught Geology by my next door neighbour in Fife. The town really let Prince William be… and town members did not encourage the paparazzi! The town surrounding the campus has many shops, restaurants, a quaint movie theatre, a Tescos, fish and chippie shops along with some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The university is situated next to the North Sea and also next to the Royal and Ancient where GOLF was invented. A little over 10,500 students attend the university and if you’re planning on attending and are accepted, tuition can be in the upwards of £25,000 for overseas students, not including room/boarding. By today’s rates, that’s only $28,762 per semester if you’re from the USA. Not that bad if you think about the expensive tuition in the USA. If you live in Scotland and are Scotland based, you may be able to go to the university for free. Imagine that? I would visit the university and walk on the campus and explore the rich history. Check out the oldest living tree on campus. Afterwards, go to Forgan’s or Balgove Larder - a few of my personal favourites - for tea. Then, walk on St. Andrew’s beach and play the Chariots of Fire on your phone. Don’t take my word for it, visit yourself.
Beautiful campus located in a lovely town. Our son was accepted there so we took a look around, before he decided on Cambridge. Interesting history, architecture and of course the famous golf course. FOLLOW ME for more thoughtful recommendations as I travel the world
The oldest university of Scotland. Just went for a trip to St. Andrews and stopped by it.nnThe marvelous architecture master piece of the building is worth seeing and if you are lucky just sit in the lawns to enjoy the campus life.
Gorgeous medical campus. Ample car parking spaces with a rapid charger. The North Haugh is easy to visit with many close golf courses.
