<p>Hi,</p>
<p>so I just transferred to penn state, university park, and i have to say that i really really expected the social life at penn state way more different than i experienced it so far.</p>
<p>Everyone was telling me that it is easy to get involved to make new friends and so on. But so far, I actually have troubles with even meeting people.
I have been to another, smaller college, one year ago and I hadn't any problems to meet people and to go to parties, even it was really not considered to be a party school. I had always several options where I could go to, I was pretty much overwhelmed. And I thought it would be pretty much the same at Penn State.
But as I said, I have the feeling that it is so hard to get involved. Those people I actually have talked to, told me that is is not easy at all and when they wouldn't know what they would do, if they were not involved in greek life.
Unfortunately, all those people are in sororities (also my roommate) and they are not allowed to take me to any events or parties..</p>
<p>I thought I could meet people at my floor, but in the first days when I wanted to say "hi!!" they were pretending not hearing me, or just looked down to the floor ^^ that was so different at the other college, i was friend with almost everyone there.
and in classes the people are also not really talkative. When I had a nice chat with someone, I feel like after the class, they won't even say "bye"</p>
<p>I have joined some clubs, but there are so many students, and most of them will already come with someone they know, so that I couldn't make friends there, as well.</p>
<p>I'm actually a really talkative and outgoing person, and I really had never problems with getting involved.</p>
<p>Can anyone give me advice how I can meet new people and getting friends at psi??</p>
