University of reading

I got into University of Reading for PHARMACY 🎉

I wanted to know more about the student life, the quality of teaching , the modules (and do they actually help in real life)and the cost of living.

How is it like to live there as a student and how is the accommodations (safe, clean, equipped, cheap/expensive?).

And how's Reading I'm general.

Thanks for y'all help.

First of all, congratulations on your offer! 🥳 This is a bit unrelated to the topic, but I wanted to ask something. How long after your interview did your Reading offer appear on your UCAS?

I had my interview on January 6. They told me it could take months for it to appear on UCAS. So I was just curious about how your process went.
