Friendship Day<\/h1>\n

Yesterday was Friendship Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the importance of friendship in all its forms. We know how hard it can be to make new friends when you go to university. And we understand how important friends can be for getting you through your studies. For that reason, we thought we\u2019d just take some time today to talk a little about the different ways the university can support you in making new friends once you start your studies here.<\/p>\n

Once you become a student at Edinburgh Napier you are also welcomed into the Edinburgh Napier Students Association (ENSA), our student union. Here you\u2019ll find the student clubs and societies at the university. They are also responsible for organising student-centric events at the university. You can learn more about the students union at their website, ENSA Home<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ENSA<\/h2>\n


>Joining a club or society is a fantastic way to make new friends at university. It gives you a chance to meet other students who have some of your same interests. I can speak from personal experience and say that the greatest friends I made at university, the ones I still keep in touch with today, are the friends I made through joining different clubs related to my hobbies.
>When the new academic year begins, ENSA will host a range of events throughout the first week. They are designed to welcome new students to the university and help them get to know other students in their cohort. You can find the events list on the ENSA website at Edinburgh Napier Welcome Week 2025. <\/a>\u00a0 Here is\u00a0 a full list of events being added at the start of August.<\/p>\n

The Napier Friendship Club<\/a> is organised by the Visa and International Support team as a way of helping students to find and make friends with other members of the university, with a particular emphasis on helping our international students to find community as they arrive in the country. The club organise events throughout the academic year. So if you\u2019re looking to make friends at university why don\u2019t you email friends@napier.ac.uk<\/a> to find out what they have planned for the coming school year.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re a new student joining us or a returning student, we hope you feel welcome here at Napier. And that some of the information provided can help you build a strong friend group during your studies.<\/p>\n
