Here are 10 advice points from the video:

1. Get involved in club: Explore different clubs and activities to meet new people and make friends. Consistency can lead to lasting friendships.

2. Making friends takes time: Don't rush friendships in the first week. Put yourself out there by visiting other dorms and initiating conversations.

3. Wear what makes you confident: Dress comfortably and according to your personal style. Overalls were popular at the speaker's college, but it varies by location.

4. Don't rush into relationships: Freshman year is a time of personal growth, so focus on making friends rather than seeking romantic relationships.

5. Explore beyond campus: Break the campus bubble by exploring the surrounding area, whether by bike, shuttle, or walking.

6. Balance socializing or academics: Find a balance between socializing and studying and prioritize what's best for your academic success.

7. Your roommate doesn't have to be your best friend: It's okay if you're not super close with your roommate. Close friendships will develop naturally.

8. Stay connected with home: Keep in touch with family and friends from home through regular calls or messages.

9. Maintain a healthy lifestyle: Be mindful of late-night snacking and listen to your body's hunger cues. Keep healthy food options in your dorm and stay hydrated.

10. Find a consistent workout routine: Incorporate physical activity into your routine, whether it's going to the gym, running, or other forms of exercise. Listen to your body and prioritize your well-being.
