Together, we can make waves
One year of Making Waves: The Campaign for St Andrews
In the year since the public launch of our Making Waves Campaign, we have raised over £144 million towards our ambitious £300 million target. This remarkable progress has only been possible thanks to the generosity of our alumni, friends and families.
The Campaign is, first and foremost, about supporting students, ensuring that potential not financial circumstance determines who can study at St Andrews. Scholarships play a vital role in this, offering life-changing opportunities to talented students who might otherwise be unable to take up their place at the University.
With your help, we are also creating transformative new spaces from ‘New College’, home to International Relations and Business, to the Digital Nexus building at the centre of our Science and Medicine Campus, and supporting world-class endowed academic posts for the future.
Will you help us turn the tide for those who need it most?
Our Areas of Greatest Need fund is a vital source of support that allows the University to respond quickly wherever the financial need is greatest. In recent years, this has meant coming to the aid of our students as they navigate challenging times due to global events, economic crises and political unrest. Your support makes all the difference.
