FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHEN CAN I MOVE IN? (2017)
Move in day is Saturday, September 9th at 10am.
DO I HAVE TO MOVE OUT OVER CHRISTMAS/SUMMER?
There's no need to move out over the Christmas holiday. However, at the end of the year, your room must be vacated and returned to its original state.
CAN I BRING A MINIFRIDGE/MICROWAVE/HIGH-POWERED ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE?
Unfortunately no. McIntosh is an old building and such devices would probably fry the entire building. However, each floor has a kitchen equipped with electric kettles, microwaves, stoves, fridges, and ovens.
CAN I BRING MY BIKE?
Absolutely! McIntosh has a bike shed in the back of hall; simply talk to the Residence Service Managers about registering your bike and they'll take care of the rest.
WHERE CAN I STORE MY SPORTS EQUIPMENT/EXTRA BELONGINGS?
All personal items must be stored in your room; there is no additional storage in hall. However, some sports teams have storage options for their kit; you can contact sports teams here.
The only exception is luggage storage - once you've unpacked, you can contact the Porter to store your empty cases.
CAN I BRING MY CAR?
While you can bring your car, there is no car park available for students. However, in such a small town, a car is hardly necessary.
CAN I HAVE A PET IN HALLS?
St Andrews University has a strict no pet’s policy. The only exception to this rule is if the animal is an Assistance Dog and meets the criteria as mentioned here.
