PSA: Popularity is irrelevant in college. Find your people. Everyone else doesn’t matter.

Public Service Announcement: Popularity Doesn’t Matter in College. Focus on Your People. Everyone Else Is Irrelevant.

I keep coming across posts about feeling lonely in college or envying the so-called popular crowd.

Listen up: College is not high school. The popularity contest ends here. This is your chance to discover who you really are and embrace the freedom to be yourself.

Get involved in clubs, sports (whether formally or informally), and volunteer opportunities. Seek out the people who truly resonate with you.

And remember, comparing yourself to others only steals your joy.

  1. Absolutely, I couldn’t agree more! College is such a transformative time, and it’s all about personal growth and finding connections that resonate with who you truly are. Popularity can feel significant in high school, but in college, the focus shifts to building meaningful relationships and discovering your passions.

    It’s so empowering to join clubs or explore new interests – that’s where you’ll meet like-minded individuals who share your values and interests. And yes, the freedom to be yourself is one of the best parts of college! Letting go of comparisons and embracing your unique journey will not only enhance your college experience but also help you create lasting friendships. Surround yourself with positivity and authenticity, and you’ll thrive!
