Is St. Andrews boring?

I firmed my offer yesterday (I absolutely loved it at the open day) and I consider myself a really sociable person, so I’m sure there’ll be more of us!
I think it’s a case of who you’re with, rather than where you are in terms of nights out and things.
I know a few people who are there already, and they have plenty of fun! Lots of partying too if their instagram accounts are anything to go by, lol.

I’ve got an offer for St. Andrews to start studying in September so I’ve been watching a few videos about accommodation and life and everything but the University seems to want to put across a certain type of person, one that comes across to me as someone I won’t really get a long with. I don’t want to be judgemental but everyone looks kind of quiet, awkward whereas I’m very sociable and like going out as well as the academic kind of life.
I was just wondering if this representation of St. Andrews is accurate? I really want to go there as it the course is amazing and the town is lovely but I’m just afraid I won’t really fit in and I’m more suited to a university like Leeds or Loughborough??

Hello,
I was wondering what you decided? I am in the exact same position as you were. I have an offer and although I recognize that the academics can't get much better, and it is definitely the best uni I've applied to in that sense, I am someone that likes to go out, have fun, etc.... Not something I do every day but something I like to do nevertheless. So I wanted to get your thoughts on it.

Same here! I'm going to St Andrews and I live in Kent atm. I go out a lot partying and prioritise socialising just as much as my academics tbh so hopefully we won't be alone on that frount!
