Thank you. I applied a while ago :smile: Are you an international student as well? Great to get to know someone that are planning to study Management!


Hi!

Yes, I am an international student. Currently pursuing the IB Diploma. Which high school course do you pursue (have finished)?

Hi! I'm a US student who just received an unconditional to study English! If you're from the US you should probably hear soon, I know some other people who have! Has anyone been to St Andrews/can they tell me what the town is like? Good luck to everyone!


The buildings are gorgeous in St. Andrews! The sea is so pretty and it is very easy to navigate the town, even on your first visit. The people are very nice and extremely well dressed. It's a little windy, but I would say not as windy as Edinburgh. Congrats on your offer! I'm a US applicant for IR and Modern History, but I'm still waiting on a decision.

I'm a UK student and I received an unconditional Geography offer earlier. I visited St Andrews before applying and was struck by the community feeling and how they like to maintain traditions. The town is small but as there is a tourist industry and students are generally wealthier than in other university towns, there are more shops/supermarkets etc. than one would expect! Hope that helps :smile:

Congrats, I also got an offer for Physics today. Was expecting to have to wait until at least January to find out so was a pleasant surprise.

I'm applying for physics too im sending my application off next week but I'm getting so worried my personal statement won't be good enough. How much time did you put into your statement ?

I wouldn't worry too much about your statement, your grades are what get you offers, especially for a course like physics.
I did take time with my statement although I had an early deadline so I had to do corrections quite quickly. As long as your teachers say it's fine then don't be concerned.
Got an offer for Psychology from St Andrews today! Any one else?

Has anyone gotten an offer from the Biology department? I know they select students by departments, and I haven't heard anything. Maybe the bio department waits a while? Anxious!

Is that unconditional or conditional? I'm a UK student and have been told to expect to find out around February but it seems some people are already getting them.

It's a conditional offer for AAA. I wasn't told much after the initial email and I'm a UK student too
