[quote=Anonymous]My DC took a full semester and a half to get settled. It is definitely hard finding new friends. They had all the same experiences, feeling lonely, eating alone, feeling like they were the only one without a friend group, they even thought of transferring (as if that would help!). I advised them to keep trying, and give it one more semester. The second semester really helped and they found their tribe. All the previous advice is spot on... keep trying, keep going to clubs, sign up to Do Something for the club - the next welcome event, the fundraiser, the communications, etc. Also, midterms are coming up, have him connect with one person in each class to have a study buddy or small study group (even if he doesn't need it).[/quote]
