Student welfare

For students to make good academic progress they need to be both happy and healthy. St. Andrew's has always paid great attention to the domestic life of each of its students. The Accommodation Officer monitors all students carefully and keeps a watchful and sympathetic eye on their general welfare. In practice this means that she makes regular visits to all types of accommodation, she liaises closely with housewardens and Academic Supervisors and, when required, she arranges appointments with the College doctor.

Diet

The College can make provision for students with particular dietary requirements whether this is for religious or medical reasons.
