黑料不打烊

Will I meet academics or visit departments?  

Campus tours are general tours of the University; they will not include visits to departments or meetings with academics unless you have booked a tour that includes a subject meet and chat. If you would like to speak to an academic, please contact them directly to arrange a meeting.

Will I be able to visit accommodation and see a sample of a room?

Due to all are rooms having a student in residence, we are unable to show you a sample of a University accommodation. Please visit our accommodation webpage to learn more about the different types of rooms we offer.

Will there be other people in my tour group?

There may be other prospective students and their supporters in your group. The group will be no larger than 15 people. 

What time should I arrive for the campus tour?

We recommend arriving on campus 15 minutes before the stated start time to allow yourself to walk from the car park or bus stop to the meeting point.

Where should I park? 

The car parking for this event is car park 1A which is on the left after entering the University’s main entrance in Shinfield Road. This is a pay and display car park. However, there is a parking permit attached to the confirmation email that you can print. 

Will the tours be accessible? 

Whiteknights is a large campus set in parkland with a lake. Although mostly level, with gentle slopes there can be a considerable distance between buildings. The tour will include a lot of walking across our 130-hectare campus. If you have any concerns, please email us at student.recruitment@reading.ac.uk.
