At the main University site a male and female doctor are available for consultation and advice on health matters. Students on courses longer than 6 months duration are fully covered for medical treatment and will only have to pay standard prescription charges for medication from pharmacists. Previously, this has included trips round Scotland, holidays to Europe, and the annual International Night. The International Club also organises events and meetings. The University provides Muslim students with facilities for prayer during the period of Ramadan.
Students can buy halal meat locally and there is a mosque only a short journey from the city centre.
The International Office is pleased to answer any specific questions you may have, or to arrange individual visits for interested students and parents.
