Accommodation guarantee
2025/26

Our guarantee

You will be guaranteed a place in halls for 2025/26 if you are:

  • a new full-time undergraduate who holds Reading as a Firm UCAS choice and applies for accommodation by 1 August** and satisfies any conditions of their academic offer by 3 September 2025.**
  • a new full-time postgraduate who has accepted an offer from the University and applies for accommodation by 1 August** and satisfies any conditions of their academic offer by 3 September 2025.**

* Please note, you need to apply by 23:59 British Summer Time (UTC+1) on 1 August of your year of entry.

** Subject to restrictions, please see the  (PDF – 134KB) and  (PDF – 194KB). If you have a conditional Firm offer, then you must meet the conditions of the offer, for example, achieving the required A level grades, in order for the guarantee to apply.

A place in halls cannot be guaranteed if the ÌÒÉ«ÊÓÆµ is your Insurance choice. 

The number of rooms available varies from year to year depending on the number of successful applications to the University. We have a range of options available, with currently good availability, and securing a room is highly likely. All accommodation will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

You will not be able to apply for accommodation until the ÌÒÉ«ÊÓÆµ becomes your Firm choice. 

Students holding Insurance offers should explore alternative accommodation arrangements if University accommodation is full. You will be provided with further information and guidance if this situation arises.
