irstly, to get there in first place, make sure you have printed off a copy of where the your campus is and how to get to your college accommodation. When you located, park up, there will probably be some friendly students hanging around in similar colored t-shirts: these will be rep from college, who are there to sign your you in, and give you your room keys. You'll have to give name and sign a few your forms, and then someone will show you to your new digs. At this point, don't try and lug all your stuff to your room. Wait until know where i is, and then come back you for it later After showing the will leave you to it so start bringing all you to your room, guide your gear up to room. Unless you fancy a bit of help from the folks, they might your you've unpacked. Although if you aren't the unpacking suggest coming back after sort, your mums offer might be taken up. At this point, gradually other people will be arriving too, so don't worry about having to rush out to meet people just yet. As unpacking, leave your door open! It is a great way for other new people you are on your floor to hello they are passing, or to wander in and offer you a cuppa if say as they've already unpacked 'Stick a sign on your door with your name and a tempting slogan such as "Come in and say hi, I have chocolate!" Doing this will make you friendly and approachable and unless you are fibbing about the chocolate, you will have some happy housemates in your dorm room later on Once you have unpacked and you have said your goodbyes (don't worry, it will be hard for some just remember you will see them soon) have a wander around your floor and say hello to a few other new people, or head to the communal area (often the kitchen, a basement, a common room) if a few people have begun to gather there This is when you can begin to get to know your new housemates, and lots of introductions and chatting will ensue! The rest of the day is really up to you, and depends on what your campus has organized or what you all fancy doing. Often the greatest first night is just exploring he campus and surrounding area, and grabbing a few drinks at a college bar
