<p>Relax(: I think you are just psyching yourself out with exaggerated fears. Making friends will be easy with college, especially freshman year, when there will be plenty of other nervous people entering from a different state etc with no previous friends attending. From what I’ve read about freshman year, there are dorm get-togethers etc, so there will be plenty of opportunities to make friends! Also your roommate(s) is a possible friend plus any classmates! I think you are just freaking yourself out. No need to exclude NYU as an option due to fear of not making friends(: I hope this helps!</p>
