So i posted about this already, but have not particularly found a definite answer.
This is the first week of Uni, and im not enjoying it. I know it is just the first week, but even during freshers it was the worst week ever. I am completely homesick and it is taking over me - I am not friendly with my flatmates due to some disagreements about loud noises at night and smoking inside. Im not one to go out all the time as i think that clubbing can get a bit boring every now and then since you just do the same thing every time, plus i do not like to drink a lot anyways.
I am an international student (my family is 7 hours away by plane) and i did come here with 2 friends, however because they are originally from the uk they have settled in and are loving the lifestyle. But because i am finding it so hard and am completely depressed i feel like i may be isolating myself - i totally understand who wants to hang out with someone that is always depressing to be around and will be a party pooper on a night out.
Needless to say i havent made any new friends either, so if im not pissing off my old friends im sitting in my room alone wondering whether or not i made the right decision in coming to uni. Im not sure whether i have picked the right course, but i do know that if i was to switch i would have to go to another university anyways, due to the fact that this one doesnt offer it - which would be terrifying considering the fact that i am finding it so difficult and i came here already knowing 2 people.
I heard there was a withdrawal period, in which a student can cancel their time at the University, while still getting back their tuition fees, im not sure if this will apply to international students, but if someone can offer any assistance that would be amazing. Im not set on leaving, but am definitely thinking about it, due to the fact that if i dont consider it now then i may not be able to without loosing the expensive international fees....
