<p>i'm going to be transferring to college in the spring '11.
i will going to UT-Austin. my grades are not good enough to make it into the school for the fall.
it's such a big school that you don't see the same ppl everyday. how can i make close friends as not only as transfer, but a spring transfer?</p>

<p>Clubs/organizations? That’s how most people at my school seem to find their cliques.</p>
