Do you have any tips for making friends then? I'm very shy and at uni I usually sit alone. I think it would be weird if I just started speaking to people all of a sudden.
Ok, stop doing that. In your classes, sit at the front, one of the front two rows. The best and most interested students in each class (male and female) will be there. Participate in the class as much as possible without disrupting things, ask questions. If there's something you don't understand, lean over and ask the person next to you if it makes sense to them. Either they'll agree with you that is confusing, or they may offer a quick explanation. If there's a test coming up, say you are looking for study partners. Actually try to put a study group together of two or three people who want to do well in the class (and make sure you are one of them).
Start looking for extra-curricular activities, bands, plays, etc going on around campus that are interesting. See if anyone you meet is interested in attending. That sort of thing. You can either try to fit into a group or assemble one yourself
