St Andrews Access Award

The St Andrews Access Award was established to provide financial assistance with the cost of studying at the University of St Andrews.

Depending on your household income, you could be eligible for a non-repayable guaranteed award for the duration of your Undergraduate course.

The Access Awards are based on financial need. Students should demonstrate a below-average household income and a need for funding in their application.
