Just make sure to meet people in the first week is all I can say really. Once everyone gets into their own little groups it can be hard to get into them.

Don't do drugs.

EDIT: I don't really have any tip for that, I would have the same problem. Good luck :P

Also psychology is neat. Nice!

For real though, uni is fun and there's probably some of the best years of your life ahead of you. Also, don't get too hung up on being an introvert - a lot of people are, the world's still turning though. Relax and let things come your way.

You probably won't be the only socially-awkward introverted person there. Try to spot the others and connect with them. It's only hard the first few days

sorry but no, never been to university, but if i have to go somewhere i don't feel very confident i try to think of this

Its not so different from High School. Its even kind of disappointing because of that haha

You will be OK, don't worry. I'm sure you will meet a lot of nice and interesting people, somehow persons that are introvert and shy during high-school do well on university. Maybe because there less shitheads around.

Nice career you picked, good luck!

Uhhh, just be friendly? University is a lot of fun.

Know that unless you know a lot of people who are studying/going to study there you have a lot more room to establish a new you. Preferably still you but it's a lot more easier to be oneself in college/uni than it was during grade school. Alternatively you can make up a new persona such as a more social version of yourself. It's a strategy which sometimes works for me - being somewhat of an introvert myself I just decide to play a role of a more social me. Of course it's just easier to get a bit drunk and then socialize but don't fret, there's always room for all types of people at uni! Good luck!

I think you've found your biggest fear, then?

Start here.
Work hard, best things in life are still to come.

My advice would be worthless, so listen to Yeliena instead.

I graduated from university when i was 20 years old and i am very happy that its over
Relax, take it ez

I sis two undegrad degrees and for my first one I was in residence.
My family lives in an old farmhouse so privacy was at a minimum due to bathroom placement.
I was happy to stay most of the time in my 1st year single room (tiny) and go to the coffee shop in my college evenings. (a short elevator ride and walk inside) They had a bigscreen t.v and I got to know one of the servers who was (conveniently) in my "house" The University is broken up into residence colleges and further divided into houses based on one to three floors in each. ) So I got to know someone that way (as well as the regulars in the coffee shop.
The next year I was more "open door" and got to know people on my floor.
On-campus housing is great for this in the first couple of years.
Then there are study groups. People who you see in a couple of your courses are great for this.
Another way to meet people is join a club. Not two, not 10 - just consider something you are interested in.
DON'T be an idiot and drink your face off. (having a drink if you actually want it is okay but don't do it to fit in - hell drink coke or something in the campus pubs if you don't want to drink. aren't allowed etc.
.
Also feel free to do drugs - but not hard drugs or addictive ones. if you have an addictive personality - don't.
Smoking an "occasional" joint is fine. but make sure people are cool with it.
I'm cautious and have avoided molly as it fucks with serotonin.
And make sure you watch your drink at parties and when out . It sounds paranoid but a lot of assholes see an unattended drink as something to fuck with.

Be friendly. And open to the friendship of others.

I don't know how to talk to people and somehow managed to make good friends, so you will be fine! :D The great thing about university is that you already have something in common, because all of you are interested in the same field. Good luck :)

I through the same thing when i entered university, there's no need to be scared, most of your classmates will probably be in the same situation as you are.
You just have to be yourself, you eventually discover someone or a group with things in common.
Nobody will know what to talk about at first, the first thing you all have in common is the university and what you are studying, it's a good start.
And relax, it'll be all right. :]

put on man clothes and pretend trought your first day make friends, hype your real self, confuse some guy on why he finds you atractive, then have a liar reveal moment, but since everyone loves you because of you and not because of your sex or whatever then you all live happyly ever afther, THE END:

don't do crap, don't try to be popular, don't get high, don't get a random boyfriend, don't study too much, and finally don't worry too much.

Don't do anything embarrassing in public xD

Don't worry, a lot of people are "scared" by strangers
nice choice tho, I wanted to take psychology too.

I'm an expert at starting University: I've been to three different ones.
And I am also quite an introvert myself... but I am too cool and handsome, so people just spontaneously introduced themselves to me.

So the trick is: be cool.

dont pretend to be someone that you are not.
eventually you will find people that fit your lifestyle
i had the same anxiety when starting but keep in mind that everybody has problems somewhere...
uni is fun and im currently having the time of my life
just try to enjoy it while it lasts
cant wait to wake up early to get to work... yuck ;_;

just skip class :P

Come on... People is not going to eat you if you say hello! Unless they are zombies
The first day of university is like the first day of highschool: try not to make enemies. Friends will come with time ;)
