Private and rented accommodation
There's lots to consider when living off-campus. Firstly, your new neighbourhood will be made up of people with different lifestyles, so it's important to be a considerate neighbour. Then there are things you'll need to know such as when your bins are collected, how to recycle and what your responsibilities are, plus information on parking in the community, and how to get around Reading by bus and bicycle.
We build strong links with the community to ensure you are safe and supported. Read more on living in the community.
You also have access to all campus facilities and services in the same way our on-campus students do.
