Freshers advice with Sarah
28 June 2023
We spoke to some of our Student Mentors to find out what advice they'd give to their first year self and how new students at university can take these tips onboard. Hear what Sarah has to say.
“I would tell my first year self to be brave.
"It seems crazy, but everyone comes in really worried and really nervous about what’s going to happen. [About] the friends they’re going to make. And it’s not worth it.
"You’re going to make friends no matter what. Everyone wants to make friends with you because everyone is in the same boat. And you’re going to make amazing friends and you don’t even know how much they’re going to mean to you. You’re going to make mistakes. You’re going to lose friends, but it wall all be worth it in the end. You’re going to have a great time.”
