Living accommodations for St Andrews, Scotland

Residence Halls

The University of St Andrews offers housing in student residence halls. USAC students can indicate their preferences among the options available when applying for university housing. Residence halls range from more historic buildings to the attractive St Salvator’s Hall (better known as ‘Sallies’) to Agnes Blackadder, a more modern residence hall. In each one, students are provided with a well-furnished study bedroom, either shared or single. Some halls offer private ‘en-suite’ bathrooms while others are shared. Libraries, computer rooms, and lounges within the halls provide ample opportunity for both academic and social activities.

Students can choose from catered residence halls, which include a meal plan, or self-catered residence halls, which do not include a meal plan but provide access to fully equipped shared kitchens. Laundry facilities are also available in each hall.

Each university hall has its own wardennial/residential life team who lives within the hall, are available to support students on a range of matters, and strive to build community among residents.
