Things I wish I knew before coming to Lancaster University
Hello everybody! My name is Zahra and I am a Digital Content Ambassador. With my final year coming to an end, I will be sharing with you the five things I wish I knew before coming to Lancaster University. Choosing the right college, making friends, confidence-building, what to pack, extracurricular activities, and more! It’s quite like a letter I would write for myself three years ago knowing what I know now. Hopefully, this video can help prepare you better and ease some of that first-year pressure! Please comment if you have any questions.
