life at st andrews/other scottish unis

can any scottish students more specifically st andrews tell about what life is like there? i feel like all i see is that theres barely any scottish people and it can be a bit isolating for the few scottish students there and i’m worried since i really love the course i’ve applied for but unsure about student life for scottish students!

We went up to St Andrews on Saturday and the students were very enthusiastic about their social life. They are right next to the beach and accommodation is all together in the town. They are all at union rooms or have house parties. In fact, I'm on the offers holders SC group and the third year who runs is has already organised a house party at his for all us newbies. It's a lot more social than other areas where people disappear off and socialise in small groups at nightclubs. It's friendlier and more inclusive.
