The world has changed beyond recognition during the past few weeks, and the daily life of the University of St Andrews community with it.

We have all had to make difficult decisions and take steps that would have been unthinkable until recently, which is why we are also launching a focused appeal to help our students, for research that will contribute to the defeat of Covid-19, and to reach areas of greatest need at this time.

What is the Student Support Fund?

Our immediate priority is to help both undergraduate and postgraduate students affected by this pandemic who may:

  • be unable to go home because their families are self-isolating or at risk.
  • be without access to the technology necessary to study online at home or keep them from being isolated from their peers.
  • have lost income from part-time work but are still liable to pay private rent.
  • need additional bursary or stipend support to complete their studies over a longer period of time.
  • require additional help through exceptional circumstances.

Why are we asking for help?

During this situation, students continue to need our help. However, we can’t do this by ourselves.

We have come through many seismic events during our more-than 600 years of history and, with your help, we will come through this too.

This fund is supported by your charitable donations only. Thank you for helping our students in need.
