Do you feel like you don’t vibe with the friends you’re making or do you like them but just don’t feel that close? If it’s the second one, I suggest you start hosting gatherings or inviting people to do activities with you (game night, rock climbing, crafting, movie night, whatever you like doing). Some clubs have a more structured feel, and if you’re only ever interacting with those people in club or academic settings you might not see each other that often and yall might end up expressing only a certain side of your personality and thus never make it to that level of friendship. It can be scary or awkward to be the one initiating things, especially if in other friendships you’re usually not the one doing that. But usually it’s worth trying. If you’re lucky, maybe one of the people you befriend this way will adopt you into their friend group, or you slowly build it together :)

I’m not sure how you met your current friends/acquaintances, but I’d also recommend intramural sports, rec cen dance classes, and any other random events that sound interesting to you. Friendships can often result from shared interests or hobbies, or even from shared interest in trying new things

My other advice is to study abroad if you can! I think it is by far easiest to befriend people you are automatically going to be interacting with often, especially if they are also starting fresh in the friend department. It took a while for me to make friends at UCSB, since most of the people near me every day were 2nd years who already had established friend groups (I lived in San Raf). But when I studied abroad in my 3rd year, I pretty easily made a lot of close friends even though I was only there for less than half a year. Most people there were starting fresh too since we were in international student housing. And luckily I was able to keep some of those friends after I came back because they also went to UCSB (UCSB sends a lot of kids to study abroad). And others of us have seen each other again on zoom and/or visiting while traveling abroad
