tip for uni life

My recommendation is to join clubs that interest you, a lot of times you can meet new people through similar interests. Other than that just be open minded and friendly and most times periods before or after classes can spark conversation. Don't worry if you don't have best friends by the first week, forming relationships takes time.

One approach that's really worked out well for me is by asking the people around me simple questions during the first week of school. Usually I end up asking "Do you have the textbook for this class?" It's a simple starter that usually leads to conversation rather than a yes/no answer :)

Aside from that joining clubs, attending events, and volunteering are really great ways to find friends!
