    Everyone else will be just as terrified as you, and everyone will be worried about making friends. As long as you make an effort to get involved in stuff for the first few weeks you won't have any problems :)

    I'm just finishing up my masters now and the last 4 years have been the best years :cool: Trust me, you'll get to know A LOT of people who are just as nervous as you. I've studied in both DIT and Maynooth, and college is the most relaxed place there is. You'll have a great few years and make a lot of friends

    95% of the stuff we worry about never happens. No point at all in putting yourself in a negative frame of mind, expect to make friends and enjoy yourself when you start college, and you will! Your not the first person to feel like that, you definitely won't be the last. Loads of people end up clicking with at least a couple of people in their orientation group on the first day, so you'll almost immediately have someone to hang around with! (Managed to meet my best friend and boyfriend within a couple of minutes!) College is a blast, wish I was in your shoes, and I could do it all again :) Good Luck!

    Don't worry and just be yourself, unless you're a horrible person that is
