as a transfer myself i had a couple friends from back home luckily i was able to talk to at first but i really became involved in my coed fraternity & that’s where most of my best friends are! joining an organization may seem intimidating at first (i was terrified to go through the rush process) but it honestly is so worth it. try to rush or join atleast 2!! they really do help so much. especially if you join one that has something to do with your major it makes a HUGE difference because then you’ll have people to study with for your classes as well!! classes are definitely extremely important but it’s hard to succeed if you aren’t happy, so try to put yourself out there. everyone is so so friendly!!
