1.Get organized
There is lots of potential to get stressed out at university. It is much more important that you are able to manage yourself and your time so as to keep you disciplined.
2.Get to know your campus
It’s where you will spend a lot of your time and you will settle in much more quickly, making those first few weeks more pleasant. You will also learn the quietest place to study, or the busiest time in the cafe, library etc. By knowing about your campus you will be able to make the most of the facilities.
3.Track your spending
It’s a valuable habit with all the difficulties of juggling expenditure, is a good time to start practicing it. You can find exactly where your money is going and make important conclusions from it. Found out you are spending the bulk of your money on study books? Look at buying them second hand or using the library.
4.Nights out
It’s a pretty common thing going to a bar, parties, nightclubs etc. If you are worried about spending a lot, take out a set amount of money beforehand and then leave your bank card at home!
5.Social network
Get to know many people as possible, whether it be other students or lecturers. It makes much easier if you have people you can talk to and trust. It can also open up lots of opportunities. A lecturer you can comfortably talk to may be able to provide advice on your work, and it can be so much easier to do group work if you have friends on your course.
As Sir Winston Churchill says,
"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty"
