Scholarships
Scholarships have always been at the heart of the University of St Andrews – from the gift that first created four bursaries in 1450, to the scholarship that enabled Nobel Prize-winning pharmacologist James Black to begin his university studies, to the financial support that we are able to give today’s students.
At St Andrews, we are committed – in line with our strategic aims to be diverse and internationally excellent – to attracting and admitting students with outstanding academic potential, whatever their race, religion or background.
