Through the provision of a wide variety of scholarships and financial aid programs, St. Andrews will enable students to afford an education and focus on academic development and future aspirations. The students who are academically talented, have a limited financial background, and can be grouped into special categories that need special attention are given support.
These scholarships are aimed at students that have been found to perform consistently, as opposed to one-time performance. The emphasis is on the reward of the commitment, discipline, and perseverance during the course term.

St. Andrews recognizes that there are real financial issues faced by many students. The need-based scholarships are aimed at benefiting those whose families cannot easily afford higher education due to their income.

Tuition concessions may be offered to postgraduate students who have excelled in their undergraduate education or have passed accepted tests.
