Get your writing published on an official University blog while helping other students understand that failure is not the end!

Acknowledging that everyone makes mistakes and fails is an important first step to realising that failing does not make you a failure. Nor does it make you an imposter.

You belong at St Andrews as much as everyone around you does.

The ‘Usefulness of Failure’ Blog is a collection of stories about learning from failure written by students, staff, and alumni that we hope will help the St Andrews community understand that failure is not the end.

We are looking for students to contribute their stories of failure to help more people understand that failing does not make you a failure!

Write a post for our ‘Usefulness of Failure’ Blog on any experience of failure or learning from failure that you’ve experienced. This can be about academics, career experiences, social activities, relationships, or more.

To submit a blog post with us, please use the form below. As a note, we also welcome anonymous submissions If you are more comfortable posting anonymously, you can just note so in the form: https://forms.office.com/e/0dNTQAACBn

Furthermore, once your article is published on the ‘Usefulness of Failure’ Blog it will be featured on our Instagram and Facebook Tags for more students to find and read!
