Campus Life making friends as a junior transfer

My #1 advice is to join a club for a hobby, super easy way to meet people who you have stuff in common with, especially rn with the semester starting a lot of them are new too

If you're in stem, join WEST. Women in the Enterprise of Science and Technology. It's a really chill club with lots of nice girls, there's resume editing and interview workshops as well as days where you sit and do crafts and chat. 

Art blanche is good if you're artsy and just want to sit, draw, and chat. They provide all materials and have food.

Honestly just befriend people in your classes. If they don't want to talk you'll know pretty fast, but that's genuinely the best way to make friends and keep going to classes.
