University 101: Survival Guide for Gen-Z Students

The ultimate student life manual — from exams to garri, roommates, and Jiggy vibes.

1. Books Don’t Read Themselves

Yeah, uni is fun, but remember: grades don’t fall from heaven. Attend lectures, take notes, and revise early. Past questions? Gold mine.

2. Social Life: Choose Wisely

Go out, join clubs, and make friends for the future. But also, real talk — no go date cultist babe or join funny groups. Stay safe, stay focused.

3. Always Have Garri

Every student’s emergency plan. Exams week? Broken? Hostel water no dey? Garri go always save you.

🔥 Pro-Tip: Keep groundnut + sugar on standby. Combo wey dey keep body & soul together.

4. Money Moves

Create a budget. Hustle small-small (freelancing, campus jobs). Avoid overspending on “flex” when assignment deadlines dey choke.

5. Roommate 101

Set boundaries early: noise, cleaning, food. Respect each other. Best case — roommate becomes your day-one. Worst case — just survive till the semester ends.

6. Mental Health Matters

Uni stress is real. Don’t let it finish you. Talk to friends, take breaks, and yes — use Jiggy to gist and ease tension. No man is an island.

7. Networking is Currency

The people you meet now could open doors later. Be friendly. Be reliable. Build connections with both classmates and lecturers.

8. Balance TikTok, Parties, and Exams

It’s easy to scroll till 3AM. But remember: academics first, content second. Parties will always be there — your GPA may not bounce back.

9. Safety on Campus

Always let someone know where you’re going. Avoid sketchy places at night. If wahala starts, carry your two legs waka comot.

10. Enjoy the Ride

Uni is more than lectures — it’s memories, growth, and independence. Laugh loud, love wisely, and live Jiggy.
