University is a whole new world. For most, it also means a whole new circle of friends. Once your uni friends have seen your mental breakdowns, sloppy-faced, floor-gurgling self, a connection like no other is made.
Here are 3 reasons why your uni friends are your best friends.

You should have an optimistic view and be motivated to meet new people and make friendships that will hopefully last a lifetime. Take the time and effort to reach out to people as making a friend at university has many different benefits.
