4-week social programme

Excursions are arranged every second Wednesday afternoon and on Saturdays. Destinations for Saturdays may include the Highlands, Edinburgh and Glasgow, while on Wednesdays there is the chance to visit more local places of interest, such as nearby cities, castles or places of historical interest, as well as the string of attractive fishing villages aong the coastal path of the East Neuk of Fife. Buses are provided free of charge although students may be asked to pay entrance fees to castles, museums and so on.

Ceilidhs (a Scottish dancing evening), with live music from a local band, are organised during the course.

Other evening activities, such as theatre trips or events at the Students' Union are not included in the course fee. It should be noted, however, that because students on Pre-sessional courses live together in University accommodation, there is plenty of opportunity to get to know each other and there is never any shortage of informal social events!
