University of St Andrews - University of St Andrews Bursary

University of St Andrews Bursary

You will receive about 203 EUR (paid in British pounds) as a non-repayable grant. This is intended to cover the costs of your first degree at University of St Andrews in Scotland. The funding may be awarded for up to 36 months. It supplements the tuition fee support you already receive from the Scottish Government (SAAS).

Who can apply

• Level: You are just starting your degree or preparing for your first (Bachelor’s) degree.
• University: You’re studying at the University of St Andrews.
• Where you're from: Your status is ‘Scotland as country of origin’, which means that Scotland is your usual place of residence.
• Field of study: Any subject.
• Financial need: You need help covering your living expenses.

How to apply

Apply to the university for the scholarships for Bachelor’s students. The application deadline is 1 April.

How realistic are your chances?

This scholarship is very narrowly defined: you must have ‘Scotland Home Fee’ status and be studying at St Andrews, meaning that very few people meet the criteria. If you clearly meet these conditions and can demonstrate financial need, your chances are quite good. The amount is small, so please regard it as a supplement to your main funding from the SAAS rather than as a standalone source of funding.
