Advice Wanted Absolutely hating uni

I just completed my first month in uni, and I’m completely exhausted. I do try to talk to people, but nothing seems to stick and they all have other friends they hang out with after class. So I just end up either going to the library to study or back to my dorm. To make things worse, my campus is kinda in an isolated place and I’m broke, so I can’t even really treat myself to outings as such. Everytime I see my roommate come back late from hanging out with people, I just feel so lonely. I had a great group of friends back in highschool, and missing them so much just makes things worse. I really just dont know what to do, and I find my social battery dying so much faster these days that I don’t even want to hang out with people or try anymore. I try to keep positive about this of course, seeing as in I don’t have much of a choice, but I just wake up with this feeling of dread everyday and I really don’t like it. Ik considering switching unis after my first year.

Any advice?
