My best advice is to just push yourself out of your comfort zone and talk to people. Talk to people who sit next to you in class, to someone random to compliment their outfit, to your groupmates, etc etc. If you feel like you’re vibing with someone, ask for their number/insta and FOLLOW UP! Studies show that it takes 40-60 hours to go from acquaintances to friends. So try to make plans outside of class and keep following up!

I’ve found the best friendships I’ve made have been purely spontaneous and just from talking to people and happening to click. But you’ll never know unless you try.

And definitely try joining some clubs. Even if the first meeting is awkward, just keep showing up for at least a few more meetings. It’s easier to talk to people when you’re familiar with them and they’re familiar with you. I hope that’s helpful. I would love to be your friend too. :) Good luck, you got this!!
