  Travel to St Andrews

  The weekend is a particularly busy time in St Andrews, and so we recommend that visitors use public transportation where possible. St Andrews is easily accessible by train and by bus. You will find useful travel and accommodation information on the University's website.

   If you are arriving by car, we suggest parking at the North Haugh car parks, as there is limited parking available in the town centre.

• If you cannot attend

  Offer holder events

  We host a number of offer holder events throughout the spring. You and your family are welcome to attend the event that suits you best. 

  These events vary slightly, but all will give you the chance to meet with staff from St Andrews, ask any questions you have about studying and living in St Andrews, and meet other offer holders.

  Study at St Andrews and Ask a Student sessions

  We strongly recommend that prospective students attend one of our scheduled offer holder events. However, if you are unable to make the events listed, then you are welcome to book a talk on a day that suits you.
