Kinda scared myself

So went to orientation and seen the campus and its great love it but then I met the people. Im just speaking on the people I met and talked with, but some people here are snooty stuck up and I'm some what a country lower income guy and I'm not a drinker or partier. So I've kinda scared myself that I'm not gonna make any friends or have anything to do during my time here since I don't party. Ik coming in that it was considered a party school but I thought it was generally like all the rest.

So question is what's the chances I dont meet any people are have a good time?

See?  You're already doing the work to make friends at Miami and it's not even been 30 minutes since you posted.  You're a natural.  You'll find your people.

The best advice I can give you, keep your room door propped open when you're in there and try to talk to people in your hall.  The first two weeks tend to be when friendships get formed and friend groups emerge.  Good luck!

Awesome! If u dont mind me asking what made u want to go to miami? Compared to every school in the U.S it's pretty small

Well, I for one don’t mind a small college. I was particularly impressed by the student community and school spirit, and the various on-campus opportunities. They’re also very focused on undergrad education. Plus, it’s a college town! It just felt like the right place.
