Making friends in college
18/f
Hey, you answered a question of mine about making friends in college and I really liked all the advice you gave!
My only worry is that I'm not living on campus; I'll be commuting. Do you have any more advice on how to make friends? I figure that it'll be a little bit more difficult since I won't have a dorm or a roomie, and I won't be there all the time.
I'm just really worried about this right now. College is such a big transition :/

Chances are that your college has already come up with a solution for not living on campus. I know that at mine, there was an off-campus group that did the same sort of activities as the residences during our frosh week.
Otherwise, just getting involved and going to events is the way to go. Find a club that interests you, or form a study group. There were a lot of school-wide events the first month that I was at school: concerts, movies under the stars, even free yoga classes! These are all great ways to meet people with common interests.
Don't worry too much. Everyone will be in the same boat as you. As confident as some people may seem, we're all terrified of the transition to college. Heck, I'm going back this fall and I'm scared, even though I've done it all before. If you talk to someone who looks as scared as you do, you won't go wrong.
