The University of Reading

Move in was quick and easy. Not as many unique events as I would imagine. Club venues very limited. Societies are fun.

freshers was a fun and memorable experience, would recommend people to try and go to events and socials etc. However, I do think that the process of moving out, meeting new people and being away from home can be overwhelming and isolating for many people. I would advice new students to try and have fun but to also not feel bad about feeling lonely or wanting to call home!

I had fun. It was nice to meet new friends and get to know the town. My move in experience was nice because my mum and my friend helped me move all my stuff in and make my room feel homely. I’d suggest being an open friendly person to everyone you meet as that Will help you find friends.

It was very busy and had lots of good acts. Only wish more welcoming rather than money grabbing. It would be worth doing more inclusive activities to get used to the uni and living away from home.
