    It's not correct. You need to be "ordinarily resident" which is a tax term that has no fixed definition. The general idea being that it is "ordinary" for you to live and work etc. in Scotland. The OP has not moved to Scotland simply to study. The 3 years is to do with eligibility for any funding. You must have spent the last 3 years in the EU except under special circumstances.
