“I like how the lecturers allow us space to develop our own learning and study styles within the context of our core courses. It really taught me how to take the initiative, communicate with staff and enhance my academic writing. St Andrews is full of passionate and friendly students and provides a melting pot of international perspectives in both academic and everyday life.”
