Hi, I had an interview in November but still haven’t heard back. Is this normal?

They probably find someone with higher qualification, just try to move on and find another job

Same here. But I heard that they send out decisions after they've interviewed all their applicants and Ik that there are still interviews till the end of feb.

Hi there @Whfhejjs ,

As far as I am aware, this is quite normal! It can take a bit of time for applications to be processed, especially if an interview is involved.

While I am not 100% sure on this concern, I would suggest contacting Admissions here at the University of Reading to follow this up. Contact details for Admissions can be found here. The team will be happy to assist you.

Alternatively, keep checking your UCAS Hub for updates where your offer will appear 🙂 Do let us know if you have any more questions about student life here at Reading, we will be happy to help!

All the best,
Millie 🙂

Yes, this is normal. I had mine in Nov too and I emailed them yesterday to ask when we would hear- they said that they are not making decisions until all candidates have been interviewed so we might be waiting a while :/

i’ve seen some ppl on here say they’ve been given offers for reading despite doing their interviews in january, whereas i did mine in december (? might’ve been late nov) and haven’t heard anything since, do you know if they have a certain process of giving out offers or smth bc the wait is killing me 💔

I actually don’t know, I’m a bit confused too, maybe they are only giving out offers to those who performed exceptionally well ?? I know exactly how you feel though it’s been 4.5 months since my interview and I’m losing my mind. And to make things worse i’m 90% sure they’re still doing interviews between now and the deadline so what they told me when I contacted them wasn’t even true 💀💀

Thats the thinggg! I don’t think I did horrible at the interview & this is just making me triple guess it all 😭😭😭 idk what to do for student finance either bc both my (hopefully) firm and insurance haven’t responded to me yet and they said it could take up to may, but i thought the deadline for sfe applications WAS may??

I knowww 😭😭 I need to apply for sfe too and I literally don’t know what to do. I’ve started my application because online it says you can still apply even if you’re not 100% sure where you’ll end up for uni. I really liked Reading but tbh idk if I should withdraw because I literally can’t wait until May!! And I have an offer from UCL which is going to be my firm so I need to apply for accom too… which I can’t do until I’ve chosen my firm and insurance on UCAS 💀
