Once you get to college know that things are not going to be like what you expected. The most important thing to know is that that is OK. Accept this and it will make that transition into your new life much easier. In addition your social life at college is like an investment. The more you put into it the more you will get out of it. So get involved. Find clubs and activities to be a part of. If this means take a risk and trying new things even if you are afraid you won't be very good at it do it anyway. Everyone else is in the same boat. Many new students want to get settled into schoolwork before they do this. But you should start off the year by getting involved. If not you will fall into the same routine and it will be much harder to do this. While partying can be fun this is not the best way to really feel like a part of things. You may know a lot of people but it is unlikely that you will develop fulfilling relationships.
