Hey,
Congrats on your offer!
Well trust me, you will not be an outcast! A lot of people, especially here at Kingston, live at home. You may have to make a little bit more effort in terms of planning your travel for a night out, or planning to stay with a friend.
You'll make plenty of friends on your course, during Fresher's week, and another good way is by joining clubs and societies. Maybe even through working, you could get a job at the uni in the student union, in the library or as an ambassador like me!!!
Please don't feel worried about it at all. If living at home is what you want to do then you'll make it work!
Best wishes for your Fresher's and the rest of your time at uni! Charlie
