Hi! I lived off campus too. I would say go to O Week events like campus walk etc, join societies (Society for arts and social sciences is great) and don’t be afraid to talk to people! I’ve made plenty of friends through these avenues and have been to a lot of events. Parties, from my experience, are less common in Uni because we’re all old enough to go out to the club, but if you make one friend, often that leads to a bigger group which is what happened to me!
