ToggleI am lonely and finding it hard to make friends
University can sometimes be lonely. There are lots of options for getting to know others when you are a participant on Launchpad. Once at Maynooth University, there is an Access Society to join, excellent sports facilities and a strong Students Union that are all great places to make friends.
