Want to fit in and find your way around, without looking like the typical freshman? Follow these tried and true tips.

Arrive on campus early to learn the layout of the campus before classes start.
Freshmen tend to travel in packs; if you don't want to be labeled a frosh by others, try to walk with just one or two other people.
The first few days can be overwhelming, but the adjustment comes quickly. Call your family and old friends to feel grounded. But don't call them too much!
Be outgoing; meet as many people as you can those first few weeks of school.
Make friends with a few upperclassmen. They'll help you transition, give you tips, and generally make your life a little easier.
