You actually have to be at uni to enjoy it - be on campus, get involved, and don't fall behind (It is 10 times harder to catch up so have a good calendar and plan out your day).

I would say to make the most out of opportunities university gives you. Whether it be joining new clubs, taking advantage of internships or exchange programs just do the things that you can't do outside uni. For study my best advice is to stay organised and keep on top of the work. If you don't understand something question it in the moment and move on. To get the best university experience you have to just get involved in all classes, lectures and social events and get out of your comfort zone along the way.
