There is so much to do at the university. Its so nice to have everything so local to the university but also to have everything on campus. The facilities are great and also the clubs and societies are the best places for meeting people but are also really enjoyable.
Amazing campus, so beautiful! Loads of activities and societies to get involved in, fantastic teaching and great student atmosphere.
I was happily surprised when I travelled across the sea and came to Uni of Reading and saw how big, green and welcoming the campus was. It has everything you need nearby, and should you need to go to town it is simply a 15 min bus trip or 30-40 min walk depending on where you live. My teachers are clearly engaged in their subjects and have interesting approaches to their teaching. There is a society for everyone, and a great chance to learn a new skill as beginners are very welcomed in sports/activities. The only source of my frustration until now have been group projects with other students who don´t care about doing a good job, just getting the job done. I encourage you to start at uni with high ambition and intention of putting yourself out there, no matter where you choose to go. Reading is a quality university with a good community and who cares for its students and I have not regretted choosing Reading for one second.
Very good uni, have been here before and all was not so good. Now it's a very good uni, everything is very good,
Great campus and very kind and friendly staffs.
Very friendly and lovely campus, the student union is awesome and the people that go there are very friendly.
Excellent Infrastructure, beautiful campus nature, great accomodations and student's union and course structured for career development.
Everything is within walking distance from halls, so perfect
First arriving at Reading Uni can be a bit of a shock as it's so big, but you soon fall in love with the campus. The city of Reading is also a great place to live, with lots of things to do and it only takes half an hour to London.
Such a great course!! Absolutely love it here, would recommend it to everyone!
Amazing, love every second, with amazing people!
this is the good things about reading
It is very fun and you are never bored if you keep yourself busy.
cant fault reading has a great SU!
Pretty good but more expensive than other unis.
Wifi everywhere, quickly connects. Career help but not that many opportunities. Wasn't into clubbing but facilityies and campus is beautiful green and everyone is prepared to help
An amazing place to live and study, I can't imagine ever going anywhere else. The tutors of Reading only want the best for their students and are always willing to help those who help themselves. The campus facilities are great and forever improving! Reading also offers a wide variety of societies that cater to everyone.
Reading has been amazing! The staff are fantastic, the campus is the most beautiful in Britain, and the social life is buzzing!
Fantastic university. Best choice I ever made
Reading is a brilliant university and has been a wonderful experience so far. The politics course focuses on incredibly interesting areas. The library has extensive materials, and while sometimes it is necessary to borrow a book early, generally the core books should be available as well as many additional resources and online papers
Amazing few years, so glad I chose reading!
Beautiful campus and great location. Facilities are good and support in all areas during your degree is available
After visiting other universities, UoR has the best looking campus hands down. Everything you need and all your freshers friends on campus, making first year easy to get around and great fun! I still can't fault it after a year there. The University of Reading is great!
Reading is a beautiful campus and offers great opportunities with placements and jobs after graduation.
Reading is one of the best universities , i just have too much love for this uni ... Its my second home
i like the uni but i feel insignificant there, the lecturers and staff don't bond at all. There is a massive drinking culture which i hate, students there make you feel outcasted if you dont go to union or mnq every week, i find this really annoying as i hate nightclubs and i wish there were more bars and restaurants. The university appears to suck every penny from you with ridiculously priced accommodation to JCR fees that gave us nothing.
Don't think I would be happier at any other uni. The campus, people, union and my course are great.
Reading is such a beautiful campus, so green, nice and peaceful and absolutely huge! I had a great first year and I got myself a job in the union it was nice and the staff were lovely, it was a good way to meet new people. Wifi in halls is pretty crap but that's all I have to moan about really.. ?
Awesome uni! Going to miss it loads.
Beautiful campus, wifi tends to be a problem at peak times.
Amazing people and amazing experiences!!
I'll probably get a decent looking degree out of this but it hasn't lived up to my expectations of university- I felt more challenged in secondary school. Classes are dull and the uni is a bit boring. Although there are a fair few decent societies, lad culture seems to dominate halls and its very easy to get outcast if you're not drinking every other day. I also feel that there should be more scope for choice in modules, I still have compulsory modules in third year. In conclusion I wouldn't strongly recommend the university but it's OK.
i love Reading, it's an amazing uni with incredible people and a beautiful campus where you immediately feel at home.
I've been at Reading for 4 years and absolutely loved my time here, I have visited friends at other universities and they never seem as good as here.
The best of the best. Every one ISO friendly and the coarses are great!
Beautiful campus with endless opportunities to further yourself as a person and your chosen career path
Great place to go to university
Everything is so fabulous but then I remember the internet
The University of Reading has a beautiful campus with a fantastic union that hold numerous events e.g. roller disco, summer ball, pub quiz and karaoke nights, and relaxation events during exams. The JCR's are also a great idea and gives you the opportunity to meet people in your halls and ultimately, make friends for life.
Hard to compare when this is my first experience of university. However the internet service here is very unreliable.
since I arrived at reading uni my life has changed for the better this is the best experience of my life
Very good university with an outstandingly beautiful campus.
The wifi can be very annoying when it's down, however it's provided over the whole of campus which is great.
Town life is also pretty good.
more wifi speed. Especially on the library during exam period
It's just a great uni! Really close to London and with a really high employability rate. They work really hard to promote placements, internships and graduate work schemes so it's really useful!
Saturday and Wednesday union is quality
Reading uni is great, has loads of opportunities and support whenever you need it. Campus is beautiful, and a great location
The campus is a friendly environment with lovely green spaces to chill and relax in. I have been part of the tennis and swimming club, both of which have been so friendly and welcoming and have provided me the opportunity to compete to a high standard. Wednesday Union nights are THE BEST FUN!
Excellent uni - first year has brought me many memories and I'm excited for next years to come
I think it very much depends uoon the course you choose to take but, my experience at this university so far has been brilliant. I study archaeology and the department facilities and people are incredible. The university campus is surprisingly green and full of nature. There is almost always something going on, whether its clubs, nights out or quizzes. The accomodation in first year is all either on the campus or very close to it. I am so glad i chose to attend this uni :)
The university is great, it provides a large range of opportunities to its students and the staff are very good. However the university have poor halls. Many are infested with silverfish and have mould on the windows. Generally halls social aspect it great though.
a slightly enhanced nightlife would be appreciated and increased access to services e.g. more cash machines, other than this I'm very happy with it
Wifi goes out quite a bit and can be quite slow !!! But Union is great and all the staff are really nice and approachable !
huge range of societies and sports clubs. Library has been recently updated and is lovely but doesn't have enough computers. Campus is beautiful and definitely worth considering!
