What to take to University

Depending on whether you are living in catered or self-catered halls, you will need different items.

The St Andrews Resident’s Guide is designed to answer all of the practical questions you may have regarding your residence, including details of what is provided within your room and communal areas and facilities provided.  It also contains a map of where all the residences are located within St Andrews.  You may therefore find it useful to print out and bring it with you.‌

To download the guide go to: Residents Guide 2021-22 (PDF, 15,231 KB)

There is also a downloadable checklist available here: What to take to university checklist – Save the Student which you can edit and print off.
