Hi! I’m an English applicant, but just coming here to let you know a few other applicants have set up a Facebook page/ group chat called ‘St Andrews Applicants 2018 Entry’ - hope to see some of you there, and good luck to all!! 
applied end of november, sat: 1430, arts major, havent heard yet
@kj1357 what do you mean by “arts major”?
@kj1357 I also applied in the end of November. I could be wrong but if my math is right you and I should here back before the end of the week. They usually send out acceptances between 9 AM and 10 AM EST. I’m really hoping I here before Christmas so I don’t have to wait another week.
I wouldn’t expect a response as it seems that more often than not they err on the later side of the 4-8 week window. I applied Nov. 4th and still haven’t heard anything. Obviously it depends on major etc. but it seems a little early to be this week, good luck! I hope I’m wrong and you do get a response! @BEWilliams @kj1357
@kj1357 I applied on October 30 and heard back December 12. I agree with @tuneforever that most people hear back in 6-8 weeks. Although you never know - a friend heard back in 3 and was pleasantly surprised.
One of my American friends who is currently attending only had a GPA of 3.3 and an SAT of 1130 and he received an unconditional offer last year in February. I think that St Andrews excepts almost all Americans, so long as they are not failing, because they pay much more than that of their British contemporaries.
Received an offer today for Economics and International Relations!!
@BEWilliams That seems very, very odd. The minimum SAT score out of 1600 for St. Andrews is 1320, and 1130 is nowhere near that.
^ Agreed. If they were struggling to fill a class, but so early in the process doesn’t make a lot of sense, perhaps just a poor test taker but already has the required AP’s.
@scouttt when did you apply? I applied to the same program and have had my status move from “pending decision” to “checking application” to “pending decision” again.
Mine just did the same thing today @HRS1861 and I just got an unconditional offer for social anthropology in my email about half an hour ago, so hopefully you will get something soon!
Unconditional from International Relations and Economics!
Stats:
3.6 UW GPA
1530 SAT
800/760/750 SAT IIs
555 in APs
@HRS1861 Congratulations!!!
@HRS1861 Congrats!
I applied at the beginning of November and just received an unconditional offer to Master of Arts (Honours) Modern Languages (Arabic and Spanish) and International Relations!!!
congratulations @gvollers15! Has anyone else applied for a MS in Economics?
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Hi guys! Congratulations to everyone who has gotten accepted so far! I just submitted my application this morning so I know I won’t hear back for a while, but I’m already so anxious. I was wondering if anyone applied to the Computer Science BSc program and if you’re willing to share your stats?
Hello,
When do you receive access to your St. Andrews portal? I applied a few days ago and still haven’t received it – but that might be because of the holidays.
