I didn't make any friends in Uni. But I know where I went wrong - I didn't talk to anyone, I refused to go out with anyone, and I locked myself in my room trying to avoid everyone and everything.

I lasted about 8 weeks at Uni.

So my advice is, don't do what I did. Everyone is in the same boat, and the first few days a whole lot of opportunities to socialise will come in even if you're scared about making the first move - take them. There are a lot of cool people to meet at Universities.

Arriving a few hours before others gives you the psychological edge of being sorted rather than arriving last and seing everyone else settled and making friends and you've still got to unpack.
