Making friends at uni

Wed, 18 Feb 2026 12:08:33 +1100

Making friends at uni can be so daunting! You can’t just start playing on the playground together or get excited because you have the same lunchbox like when we were kids. But don’t let that stop you, trust that everyone is feeling it! Living in accommodation myself, I went to a lot of events my accommodation put on in the first few weeks of Uni. That’s the perfect chance to meet people right there in your building (think about the potential for movie nights!).
