The May Dip is one of our favourite traditions in St Andrews - students plunge into the freezing North Sea at dawn on the first of May to promote good luck in exams and wash away any academic sins. 🌊 While we are sad that the May Dip 2020 will not take place look out for our unique virtual May Dip - follow our Instagram to find out how you can get involved wherever you are in the world. 🌍 #evertoexcel | University of St Andrews

Today we are continuing our look at unique St Andrews traditions. Over the years thousands of students have made their way down to East Sands to run into the North Sea to bring good luck in their upcoming exams. This year our students kept the spirit of the May Dip alive around the world this year with The Fellowship of St Andrews - donating to the University Community Fund in the process. #INSTAndrews #EvertoExcel | University of St Andrews
