I agree with all the above posts but I would also encourage you to not have unrealistic expectations. My daughter felt that she met lots of people her freshman year of college but that there were no real deep connections until closer to the end of freshman year and into sophomore year.
Most of her friends that have stuck were from her major/study groups and her main EC (theater).
If you like to travel and be outdoors, many schools have outdoor clubs that do day trips, weekend trips, and even longer trips during breaks. At my D’s school, the club met weekly even if was just to meet up for planning purposes.
