Offer wait time for Reading

Hi, I have done my interview with the university of Reading for pharmacy in December and I was wondering if anyone who has gotten offers for pharmacy, what was the usual wait time and when was the offer given as all I was told was latest around Easter.

Good morning,

It's great to hear you have applied to the University of Reading.

The application return time varies, as the university ensures all interviews are done before they make a final decision. However, I suggest you keep checking your spam email and your UCAS hub, as this is where you will receive your offers.

We currently have a thread for 2025 applicants, where new students can find and talk to each other. Similarly, the student ambassadors have posted key tips for joining the university. This might be a good place to meet other pharmacy students and see if anyone has received their offers yet.

At the University of Reading, there is an ambassador scheme via unibuddy, where prospective students can message current uni of Reading students. There is an MPharm 2nd-year student who I recommend you message. Her name is Athena, and you can find her account here. She will be able to give you an inside perspective on the pharmacy degree and answer any questions you may have about the course.

I hope this information helps. If you have any questions, please let us know.

All the best,
Ella

Hi there,

Offer time can vary across different courses. My advice for now would to be keep checking your UCAS Hub for any updates and spam email to ensure you haven't accidentally missed anything! 🙂

Alternatively, you may want to reach out to our friendly Admissions team if you are concerned. Contact details can be found here.

Do let us know if you have any more questions!

Best of luck with your application,
Millie 🙂

No not at all, they said to me it could take up until April to decide! They could be giving them out in waves, or still reviewing applications so I wouldn’t worry just yet x

No. Don't worry about it. They took like 2 months to reply for me.
