Prospective Student How do you non-commuters make friends?
I’m thinking of attending CSULA for masters in computer science next fall. It’s one of my top choices since I really want to go somewhere in California. I’m coming from Texas, but I used to live in the Bay Area. Anyway, from what I’ve heard CSULA is a commuter school but I’ve seen posts about people who say finding friends isn’t too hard if you put an effort. What is a good way to make friends here? Also, is it reasonable to try and find friends in the city, CSULA is in Los Angeles after all. So there’s probably other 23/24 year olds from other colleges or people that work full time who want to make friends. I’m just worried about finding my group here because of some of the stories I’ve heard on this sub and other online platforms.
