We've now looked at many of the issues new university students face.
New students do often have adjustment difficulties, but there's help available.
If students are having difficulties adapting to their new academic environment, they should act quickly. Unfortunately, many students leave it until they feel there's no way out and end up discontinuing or failing subjects. Acting quickly is the first step. Speak to your tutors and lecturers. Just because they haven't approached you doesn't mean they won't listen and help you with your problems.
