Making friends made easy
Starting university is the chance to expand your network of friends and meet people from all different walks of life. You never know who you'll meet – that person in your social sporting team might become your best friend, and your lab partner might just become your life partner. Try to embrace every opportunity to make connections and step outside your comfort zone.
