Yay! I have applied for accommodation :bigsmile:

I nearly wet myself when I saw what my application number was, and initially assumed it meant I was the 79 thousandth applicant.

No I didn't keep refreshing the page, I just clicked on the link as soon as it turned up (around about 12:02) and followed the instructions, and it went without a hitch.

I'm not the 79 thousandth applicant :laugh: Not that many people attend Reading, but when I spotted my massive application number I thought that was what it meant.

is the link not appearing with you now either?
now its postponed so no one is disadvantaged. if they didnt want people to be disadvantaged then why make it first come first serve.

The Accommodation application system is experiencing high demand and is not responding consistently. In order that no one is disadvantaged we have decided to postpone applications until this error can be rectified.

Please keep an eye on this page for further messages.

Has anyone else got to the stage of entering their choices a while ago and then it cancelling itself and going back to the main page? :smile:
I was overly keen and was logged on by 9 50 but it crashed then too

I'm not sure in the first year, as getting a parking permit looks hard & I don't wanna have to park it ages away :P The accommodation application opens tomorrow at 10am, and remember its first come first served, so try and do it ASAP xD It sounds a good idea to have some money saved up, everything is so expensive and that's without food and living costs!


I'm also thinking maybe not take it I think my halls applications worked I'm not sure I put stenton first whaat one did you put first?x

I haven't done mine yet because it wouldn't work :frown: I'll probably put Childs Hall x
It can work, I've got an email confirming the application. Just keep trying and good luck!
