    I think that's means that you have been accepted in St Patrick halls.

    Hi there, applied for two different courses at Reading as my firm and my insurance, JUST missed my firm but I'll be here in October anyway!

    Also if anyone could help me out, I've just checked my accommodation status, it just says 'STE ACCEPTED', any idea what that means?

    it means that you've provisionally been allocated a room in Stenton, and over the next few days you'll get an email confirming your accommodation and from that email you can then accept it and start sorting out deposits etc
