Looking for accommodation over the summer

Hi guys. I am looking for accommodation in Reading over the summer. I'm an outgoing and sociable 19-year-old male. Looking for something closer to university if possible. Any offers are accepted - a spare room in a shared house, separate rooms, etc.

Edit. Looking to move in ASAP - 15-20 June.

Cheers!

Hiya!
Are you a prospective student? There isn't much that the Uni can do accommodation-wise before term ends (which is Friday, July 4th), but if you are a prospective or current student you can sometimes stay in halls over the summer break. Would that help? Otherwise, it might be worth looking online at housing websites for house shares (like Zoopla, spareroom.co.uk, etc) if you haven't already. It's a tricky time of year to find students to move in with, as most student housing contracts end on June 30th. The Reading University Students' Union (RUSU) has their own estate agency, it might be worth getting in touch with them too! Their website is www.rusulettings.com. I hope that helps a bit!

Hi! I will be doing an internship over the summer At The University of Reading. I am a current student at University of Sheffield and possess a valid NUS card. Is there any way to book accommodation in your halls starting from 15-16 June - 25-27 September, then?

Thanks!

Hi again!
It might be worth contacting accommodation at [email protected] and asking if they are able to find you a room over that period. I do think it will be tricky to get you anything before the 4th of July, as term doesn't end until then, but after that there might be something! That being said, it is definitely worth contacting accommodation. Here is the website for people interested in living in halls over the summer: http://www.reading.ac.uk/internal/student/student-community/stay/acc-studentsummervac.aspx
