Here’s advice from those who’ve faced it.

Having spent the last 18 years living under your parent’s roof and rules, there will no doubt have been times you’ve more than craved your independence. Maybe it was when they refused to let you go to ‘that’ party or grounded you at 15 for getting drunk with your friends. But, despite those times you stormed to your room yelling about how you “can’t wait to move out,” now that the time has come to do just that, you’re totally terrified. And guess what? That’s TOTALLY normal! Leaving home and all you’ve ever known IS scary, but it will also be one of the best times of your life. Guaranteed!

But just to put your mind a little more at rest ahead of the big move, we asked some of our Vita Squad third years to share their advice to help you conquer your biggest freshers’ fears.
