Students should check current hall menus, dietary support and nearby food options before selecting accommodation.

The University provides student support and emergency guidance through its official services; call 999 for an immediate emergency in the UK. St Andrews is a compact town, but students should still review residence rules, nighttime travel and the University's current wellbeing and security contacts before arrival. Applicants use the University's current course and application guidance, normally applying through UCAS for undergraduate entry and the University's postgraduate route for taught or research study. Offer holders receive matriculation, fee-payment and arrival instructions; postgraduate students automatically join St Leonard's Postgraduate College. The Careers Centre and student support services provide guidance during study.
