college is a staggering position to regulate this - a lot of people there'll have an interest in assembly new people. the most effectual people in conversations are ones who're fascinated in the different man or woman. After doing the glaring 'What direction are you on?', 'the position are you from?', 'What grades did you get?' questions, ask more beneficial open questions - ones which don't have an user-friendly certain or no, or purely actual answer: 'have you ever been vacationing?', for instance, might want to be an effective commence - followed via 'the position? What became it like?' etc. On my first evening in halls, I knocked on each and every man or woman's door and requested who had to flow to the bar - went down properly. perchance the staggering way of assembly people is to hitch a club or society (or 2 or 3 - more beneficial than that & you're not likely to flow alongside). solid success!

I'll give you the best piece of advice and tell you what NOT to do - Do not lend anyone money, food, fags or anything else like that - they will take the p*ss out of you and you will be taken advantage of. You cannot buy friendship and uni is full of ponces!
Just be yourself and be genuine, try and join any clubs or societies for any hobbies or interests you may have e.g. chess, lacrosse, cinema (there are clubs for everything imaginable).
Say hello to people, ask them where they come from, what they are studying, what A'levels they did, did they have a gap year - these are the main questions which will be floating around over the first few days.
Don't shag anyone in Fresher's week, it will give you a bad reputation as a slag for the rest of your time there!

Its easy once you get into halls and uni classes as everyone just starts talking straight off, failing that coming to britain you always have drinking as an option ... try going to some of the fresh man parties and the local S U (student union) places. Failing that if you're going to york just say and i'll give you a list of all the social student groups and stuff you might want to try.... they have everything from poetry to anime watching :)

I doubt if you will have any trouble finding friends. Just remember everyone else will feel lost too and be looking to make friends. Go to the ice-braking parties etc. The Students Union usually take a lead on events just to help with this sort of thing.

you will be okay. everyone in your classes are there to learn the same thing so that is one thing straight away you have got in common.just go and be yourself. you will be surprised at how many other people will be feeling the same as you. but don`t try too hard to be friends with people,if you do,like you say,you could maybe look a bit desperate and you dont want that!! if there are people that seem a bit stand off-ish,then so be it. why would you want to associate with people like that in the first place? good luck at uni and in a few weeks you will be wondering why you ever felt like this in the first place.xx

Join a club or society at the student union.
Freshers week can ba a total pain. Some people overdo it. Try some of the events, but don't do anything you aren't comfortable with.
Best thing is to be yourself and mix a bit. Friends will come along.
Have fun ;-)

Just be yourself, when you go in talk to the people you sit down next to, chances are they are in the exact same position as you are, everybody wants to make friends like. Joining clubs can be a good place to meet people with the same interests as yourself also....the most important thing is just to be friendly and give everyone a chance! Good luck, college life is the best!!!

Everybody is in the same position. The laws of attraction will mean that someone with sentiments similar to yours will soon enough be noticable.
Just say yes to every invitation until yoiu get settled down

Watch a lot of tv shows first and buy the news paper every day.Catch up on all the latest gossip and then ask the people what they think of the tv show ,story etc and you should have no problem.

Don't scrimp on the smile. A smiling person normally has a sunny disposition and attracts positive energy--sooner or later, people will gravitate to you given such frequent smiles. And Good Luck on your studies.
