Shape the future of St Andrews

Through the Making Waves Campaign, you can help shape the future of our University, because great universities don’t stand still. Together, we will raise £300 million to position St Andrews at the forefront of societal innovation and change. It is an ambitious target, but already we have raised over £150m thanks to the generosity of families, alumni and friends like you.

From your family

By supporting the Making Waves Campaign, you can make a meaningful impact, building on the sense of pride that we hope you feel in your student’s achievements, in their growing independence, and in the transformative education they are receiving at St Andrews.

To our students – and to society

From teaching and learning to world-leading research, innovation and entrepreneurship, what happens at St Andrews makes waves far beyond our cobbled streets. Our students shape industries, communities, and conversations around the world.

Our vision for the future of St Andrews spans cutting-edge capital projects: ‘New College’ and the Digital Nexus building. We will open doors by providing more undergraduate and postgraduate scholarships, and will attract global experts through endowed chairs. Our vision is ambitious, and we want you to be part of it.

Because a St Andrews education should be

Since its foundation in 1413, St Andrews has been defined by extraordinary connections between people, ideas and generations. The student experience at St Andrews is extraordinary. Your support ensures that the experience remains extraordinary, that the research continues to shape society, and that the tradition of learning that has lasted more than six centuries continues to drive discovery.

Thank you for considering a gift that will shape lives and make waves at St Andrews.
