How can I meet people with similar interests to me?
You’re going to meet people with similar interests to you on your course, but if you want to find people who like the same social things, then definitely go down to the student’s union. Go onto the website, see what clubs and societies they’ve got and what appeals to you, and then sign up. If they don’t have something that you like, then it’s really simple to actually start something new which, in turn, other people can join, and share your interests. That looks great on your CV as well.
