1. Always expect to share your milk!
2. Make sure your NUS Extra card is permanently in your wallet – don’t miss out on that all important student discount.
3. Try your hand at everything and anything – find out about what your students’ union has to offer – you never know where you might discover a new passion or meet like minded people.
4. Make a budget and do your best to stick to it but if you find yourself getting into financial troubles, go and talk to someone. Either in the students’ union or in the university or college there will be someone who is able to help you to deal with debt and loan issues. Talk to them before your situation gets any worse.
5. It may be fun to share the cooking as it works out cheaper and it’s nice to not have to cook every night!
6. Don’t agree to move into a house with people for second year until at least after Christmas. You may think they are your best mates in the world, but it is really worth giving them time.
7. Try and check out some of the books and articles on your reading list in advance of deadlines. They have a habit of disappearing two days before your project is due in.
8. Study hard and have a great time.
