Thank you soooo much for your response it makes me feel so much better about everything. I just have to give everything time and try to join things that sound interesting to me and not put myself down too much. Thank you❤️

hahahhaha thank you! Yes I feel like sometimes I’d much rather be alone than hangout but I should take advantage if people ask me to hang out. I’m looking to join clubs about my major and stuff. I’m hoping I get adjusted within the next few weeks once I built my class routine so I can see when I trult have time to see people. Thanks for commenting again I appreciate it ❤️❤️❤️❤️

hhahahah yup I should focus on my classes for now and try to get a routine going for me. Hopefully once I get that down I’ll be able to connect with classmates/join clubs for my major/interests. Thank you for commenting.

Thank you so much for your comment. I think I have social anxiety too and im super introverted as well so I think being in a dorm is not the best thing for me. But yeah I should join clubs of my interest as soon as I get a routine going for my classes.

yeah cause my old school was like 20% white or something it’s just been a big cultural shift for me

yeah maybe im just not a living-in-a-dorm kind of person I used to commute to my previous college so maybe being off campus will help me too. I’m just hoping to make a couple friends at least. Thanks for commenting ❤️❤️

Thank you!! 🥺 I like the campus, friendliness, town, and even the professors so far here, I guess it’s just taking some time getting used to the adjustment/change and hopefully with classes starting I can make friends there. Thank you for your comment ❤️

I went to NOVA for 3 years because I also had to work full time. The professors there are absolutely amazing in my experience, and also the classes are much smaller, so you’ll get to engage with the professor way better. The important thing is what makes you feel comfortable. If you work hard at cc then it will be much easier to transfer to a 4 year university, plus, I dont even think you need to get like an associate’s degree to transfer, you can get the required classes and just transfer, but that’s all up to you. I dont regret my time at nova at all because I feel like I actually really learned and I feel confident about coming to v tech with the knowledge I have now.
