<p>Campus Life is what you make of it- there’s a lot of activities going on all the time, whether it’s a school sporting event, club sport, club-hosted activity, or school-hosted activity. These can range from concerts to fairs to movie nights to casino nights to speakers to etc…</p>
<p>It’s easy to make friends, especially during orientation and the first few weeks of class if:</p>
<p>–you leave your dorm door open while you are in it
–you go to activities and talk to random people
–don’t sit alone at events and strike up conversations with people around you</p>
<p>I agree with ctl987, as an international student, people will naturally be more curious about you (the accent is a giveaway) and you should have an easier time talking to and meeting people.</p>

<p>They do in Lothrop and Tower C. I highly advise AGAINST it for freshman. You came to Pitt/America for a reason- and part of that is the American college experience which includes, among other things, sharing a room and bathroom. It’s not the end of the world, and starting college with a roommate is an easy way to make your first friend.</p>

<p>The actual school teams, yes. I think there are very very few walk-ons for either the soccer team or the football team. In terms of club sports or intramurals, not at all. The soccer intramural is VERY popular and spots fill up fast, not sure if there is a flag-football one or not. I would suggest looking around at the activity fair before orientation and talking to various sports groups to get an idea of what you may like.</p>
