My age

I’m in uni currently and I am 17 while most people around me are older, I’m worried that people will treat me differently and that my experience won’t be good due to this. Am I overthinking it?

Yes, you're overthinking; age and maturity are 2 different things.
Most people start uni at 18 so they're unlikely to treat you any different over one year, only issue would be potentially being left out of nights out, especially the freshers week club nights but most unis now have non-drinking options for freshers events as well
