    It helps if you’re in an environment where you feel comfortable with the people around you. So, go out of your comfort zone and make friends in every class. Group projects will be a huge part of grades sometimes, so make sure that you have friends that you can rely on when working on assignments. These will be the same people you will be with throughout your university days so make use of your time making life-long connections even outside the classroom.

    Network with your professors

    Try to form relationships with your professors early on. If the classes our large, there’s a chance that professors might not even know your name. Introduce yourself and ask questions about the class.

These connections will also come in handy when you need a letter of recommendation for jobs or postgraduate studies.

Not only can you have some fun, but you can also add it your CV and experiences. By having the right peers alongside, you will be able to all the more enjoy your life as a university student.

    Take on internships

    It’s tempting to spend your whole summer just relaxing and having fun after a stressful academic year. But, just be reminded that the job market is becoming more competitive, and COVID-19 has that completion even more heightened. Get that advantage over others by attending seminars and undergoing trainings. Internships allow you to gain hands-on experience and build your CV along the way.

    Keep a balanced lifestyle

    Life as a university student can be stressful and will take a toll on your mental health. Keep a healthy balance between your academics and personal life. Study when you need to but also do not forget to rest. Know your priorities and develop a disciplined study habits to stay on track.
