// joining organizations //
This probably seems obvious, but joining organizations will ultimately lead you to people with similar interests that will most likely become your friends! This is especially true for Greek life. If you are a struggling to find friends, simply going through the recruitment process can help you meet so many people- and you don’t even have to join a sorority if you don’t want to! If you do decide to join a sorority, your new sisters will automatically be your friends. You might not be super close to every single one of them, but you will share a bond with them that you won’t share with anyone else on campus! Greek life is seriously one of the best organizations to find and make friends in, so give recruitment (and even joining a sorority) a chance even if you’re hesitant about it. –
To all freshmen entering college- you are about to have the time of your life!! Enjoy freshman year, even with all the awkward and cringe-y moments (which you will have a lot!!). Trust that no matter what happens, there is a plan for you. It is completely normal to struggle to find friends during the first semester. First semester is tough- and most college students will tell you that too. You will feel lonely at times, but try to be positive about finding friends. You will find your people- sometimes it just doesn’t happen over night.
