HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR FIRST YEAR AT LMA

Making the most out of your first year at university can be both exciting and challenging as you adjust to a new environment and academic demands. This guide gives you some tips to help you navigate this crucial phase of your university life...

Be Open-Minded and Approachable:

Be open to meeting new people from diverse backgrounds. Smile, introduce yourself, and initiate conversations with your peers. Everyone is in the same boat and looking to make friends.

Explore Campus Services:

Familiarise yourself with campus facilities such as our creative suites, personal tutor slots and our student services team. These resources can be beneficial throughout your university journey.

Get Involved: Participate in student engagement activities and events. It's an excellent way to meet new people with similar interests and make friends.

Stay Healthy: Prioritise your physical and mental well-being.

Eat well, exercise regularly, and seek support if you're feeling overwhelmed.

Ask for Help: Don't hesitate to ask for help or guidance from your tutors or student services if you're struggling with anything.

Practice Self-Care: Take care of your physical and mental wellbeing. Get enough sleep, eat balanced meals, exercise, and engage in activities that help you relax and recharge.

Stay Organised: Use a planner or digital tools to keep track of assignments, deadlines, and important events. Staying organised will help reduce stress and avoid last-minute rushes. Explore the City: You may be moving to a new city; explore the area to familiarise yourself with local attractions and activities. You might even see yourself or your work in local theatres or art spaces.

Don't Compare Yourself to Others: Everyone's journey is unique. Avoid comparing yourself to others, and focus on you.

Be Patient with Yourself: Adjusting to university life takes time. Give yourself the time to adapt to university life at your own pace.

Be Respectful and Inclusive: Treat others with respect and kindness, regardless of their backgrounds or beliefs. Inclusivity creates a positive atmosphere on campus.

Remember that everyone's university experience is unique, and it's okay to face some bumps along the way.

Embrace the opportunities for personal growth and learning, and enjoy the journey as you embark on this exciting chapter of your life.
