Hello I am a student here and it’s not bad at all. Same rules apply from where you’re from probably. If you have a bike lock it. Don’t walk alone at night. Don’t be scared by statistics. Ik it’s a huge difference and change coming here probably but it won’t be that bad. It’s not like you’ll get here and be like, man look at all this crime and violence lol. I’ve been here for 3 years and never experienced or seen it. I’ve had friends who’ve sometimes have but nothing serious. Just join orgs and clubs, make friends, find your place at school and it’ll be fine.
