Leaving University can be a daunting time, with any time of transition and change presenting new challenges that we must learn how to adapt to. When graduating University, we often leave a familiar setting and are faced with the unknown of navigating your life post University. This can be overwhelming for many graduates, and it can be hard to know where to start with navigating this transition. It is important to realise that you are not alone; most graduates feel this way at some point in their journey.
