STUDY IN SCOTLAND Living in Scotland


Living miles away from home can be challenging for international students, but there’s a lot of support available. Our universities offer befriending schemes, learning cafés and community integration projects to really make you feel at home whilst studying in Scotland. Off campus, world-famous festivals and vibrant events, as well as the peace and tranquillity of Scotland's breathtaking scenery are all within easy reach.


With excellent transport links throughout the country, you’re never far from beautiful landscapes with rolling hills, steep mountains and stunning lochs. Roughly 95% of the population in Scotland live within a five-minute walk of a bus or train stop. Our university campuses provide plenty of green spaces where you can relax, study and hang out with friends. Equally, the friendly hustle and bustle of the city will be within easy reach, with lots of things to do when you finish class or need a break from studying. Scotland is bursting with exciting events all year round. Every year there are over 350 festivals, from the biggest music and arts events to intimate gig venues and local festivals. There’s always something new and exciting happening in Scotland. And when the weather gets colder, or ‘dreich’ as the Scots say, put on a warm hooded jacket and continue exploring!


As a country that has inspired authors, inventors and musicians, Scotland holds a place in the hearts of many that have studied, lived or simply visited here. We’re immensely proud of our family of global alumni, with many maintaining their links with Scotland long after their studies have ended. Our students and graduates often say that their favourite thing about studying in Scotland is the warm welcome and friendliness of its people. Turn a corner and you’re just as likely to run into an ‘auld acquaintance’ or be introduced to a new friend.


Scotland provides a culturally and academically stimulating and rich experience. In a recent survey, 86% of students said they would recommend the Scottish experience to others. Why not take their advice? Join us and study in Scotland.
