THINGS TO CONSIDER
CHOOSE YOUR RESIDENCY PERIOD
• 40 weeks: You rent your room during term time and the
Christmas and Easter vacations. This means you move in just
before the start of Welcome Week and move out after the
end of the Summer Term. This option is normally preferred
by ­undergraduate ­students.
• 51 weeks: You rent your room during term time and the
Christmas, Easter and Summer vacations. This means you move
in just before the start of Welcome Week and move out at the
end of the Summer ­Vacation.
YOUR PREFERRED ROOM TYPE
It is a good idea to think about the room type that may suit you
best. Consider whether you are happy to share a bathroom,
whether it is important for you to be in a modern hall or would you
prefer a more traditional style. The following pages should help
guide you through your choices.
YOUR ACCOMMODATION BUDGET
Utility bills, Wi-Fi and a basic level of contents
insurance are all included in the accommodation costs. If you choose a catered hall you will
receive a catering allowance of £61.67 per week
(31 weeks of term time) to spend on meals.
Other accommodation costs you might want to consider
include laundry charges, the cost of food if you are in a selfcatered hall, JCR membership and any additional contents
insurance. For advice about managing your money and budgeting see
www.reading.ac.uk/life-moneymatters.aspx and
