My advice for new students is first and foremost to have fun. Always look for something that excites you within your studies to give you the motivation to follow through. Be passionate about your learning and everything you do. Reach out and make connections. Get involved with student clubs or groups of personal interest in the community. Get to know your professors. Fully commit yourself to everything you do, give 100%, and if that's not enough, reach out for help. At York there are plenty of resources at your disposal to help you go that extra mile.
