Few phases of life bring as much change as starting university: a new city, a new apartment, new challenges, and, most importantly, new people. At uni, you get the chance to meet others with similar interests and exciting stories. It\u2019s not unusual for lifelong friendships to begin exactly here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But let\u2019s be honest: it\u2019s not always that easy. The older we get, the harder it can feel to connect with people we feel comfortable around. Back in kindergarten, all it took was watching ants together or finding a good climbing tree\u2014and boom, best friends! These days, things are a bit more complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether new friendships click right away or not might depend on whether you’re more introverted or extroverted. In the end, though, it simply takes time to meet the right people. So what can you actually do to make new connections at university, especially if the orientation week is already over?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the Right Moment<\/h2>

One of the most obvious places to meet new people is, of course, in class. You sit next to each other, maybe work together in small groups, and chat a bit before or after the session about professors, assignments, or deadlines. But more often than not, these are brief exchanges, leaving little time for deeper conversations between lectures and seminars.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where extracurricular activities come in. Sports classes, creative workshops, and student initiatives offer amazing opportunities to connect. Universities are full of ways to get involved based on your interests, and the best part is that everyone you meet there already has something in common with you!<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n\n

Some events are well-known or actively promoted by the university, while others are hidden gems, discovered through a flyer in the hallway or a tip from a fellow student. Even if it feels a bit intimidating to try something new at first, go for it! Most of the time, people are happy to see new faces and genuinely appreciate your participation and input.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

University sports programs and local clubs are especially great for making friends. You\u2019ll find people with similar energy and goals, and because sport often involves teamwork and shared successes, it\u2019s one of the quickest ways to bond with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heard It Before, But Still True?<\/h2>

“Just be yourself!”<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve all heard it before\u2014whether it\u2019s about dating, job interviews, or making new friends. The world wants us to believe that as long as we\u2019re completely ourselves, nothing can stop us.<\/p>\n

If only it were that simple! The truth is, it’s not always easy. Even the question “Who am I, really?” can be tricky. Which sides of me do I show? And which ones might not fit the moment?<\/p>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n\n

\n \"\"<\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, there\u2019s something important behind this phrase. It\u2019s not about “being yourself” magically fixing everything; it\u2019s about not constantly worrying about what others think. Some people might find your style unusual. Some might not get your hobbies or relate to your opinions. That\u2019s okay. We\u2019re all different. Even if it\u2019s hard to accept that you won\u2019t be everyone\u2019s favorite, those differences are something to be proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the people who connect with you exactly because you are who you are are the ones who stick around. They\u2019re the friends who\u2019ll be by your side throughout university\u2014and maybe even for life. And sometimes, all it takes to meet them is a little courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

So don\u2019t wait\u2014step out, join a club, attend an event, and start making meaningful connections today. Your next best friend could be just around the corner at THE FIZZ!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
