Thx a lot for the video. Takaways: 1. First heard about TO, decided to do it 2. College is hard, calm down and be ez on urself. Everything is a progress. 3. Try new things, meet new ppl, get involved:) Be open-minded, even if you meet people who don't end up clicking with u it's fine just be friendly.

So true. College is gonna be clique-y at first because students fresh out of high school want to feel comfort in a community right away. Be tenacious, friendly, and unapologetically you! Your people will find you.

should I choose usc or ucla or Berkeley 🤢 please help 😭 im def more of an introvert

[@grantisyt]

Depends on what you're studying! If you're looking for more professional degrees (e.g., business, engineering, architecture, dance, communications, etc.) definitely come to USC because you will basically be guaranteed a job after graduation. If you are STEM, you will probably have better luck at UCLA or Berkeley. However, UCLA socially is a much better environment than Berkeley (even if you're introverted, it will still have more opportunities to find community). That being said my ranking would put USC and UCLA over Berkeley. And I would say evaluate UCLA vs. USC based on what you personally want out of your academics/career because the two socially are pretty well matched.

THIS IS SO COMPREHENSIVE
