This wee guide has the goal to help you navigate the beginning, middle, and end of university life. In other words, it aims to give some guidance from pal to pal to show you that university can be enjoyable and extremely cool, while being hard to manage sometimes but it is not meant to be easy. You should see this guide as a cousin who is 4 years older than you and tells you: You will be fine if you do the work and keep yourself on track.
Every year a fresh batch of students like us face this crazy mix of issues and uncertainties. Therefore, this guide gathered some survival tips to help you conquer your degree like a boss.

So, my friend, buckle up and get ready for this wild ride. We've got your survival guide right here, and we'll be cheering you on every step of the way. You've got this!
