Don't be afraid of losing Ships, but try not to make too many expensive mistakes that teach you nothing. EVE Online has a simple rule: "Don't fly what you can't afford to lose". Capsuleers will blow up your Ship and your Capsule. EVE Online is not a safe place not even in [[System_security#High_security|High Security]] systems. [[CONCORD]]'s job isn't to protect you, but to punish criminals. Here are a few articles covering various [[Golden_Rules|rules]], [[Tips_for_New_Players|tips]] and [[Tips_and_Tricks|tricks]] that may help you survive.

[[Wartime_Operations_in_EVE_University|EVE University is often at War]] which means and there are some ships that are best flown on an [[Alternate_characters|Alt]] to avoid being killed. At war, [[Trade Hubs]] are often teeming with [http://www.eveuniversity.org/audio_classes/Disco%20Uncertainty%20-%20The%20Dark%20Side%20of%20Eve.mp3 Gankers] and [[Corporation_diplomacy#Wars|War Targets]]. Use an [[Moving_your_items|OOC Hauler]] and read about [[Hauling|Hauling]] to reduce the risk of being killed. You should also consider using the EVE University [[Hauling_Department|Hauling Service]] and the [[Buyback_Program|Buy-Back Program]].

To help you with Ships and Modules EVE University offers [[Corporation Hangars]] with a selection of free fitted Ships at each Campus. If you don't have the [[Freshman]] title ask someone who has to get a Ship for you. If you lose a Ship during a EVE University combat fleet you may be entitled to use the [[Ship Replacement Program]].

: If you've recently finished the career agents you've probably got a small collection of ships and modules. Generally its not worth trying to move everything to your new home. Instead pick a frigate (the [[Frigate#Exploration|exploration]] one is a good choice as it has a large cargo hold) and put the most useful/valuable items in it. Package up the rest and use the industrials you got to move it to the nearest [[Trade_Hubs|trade hub]] and sell it. Once you've flown to your new campus you'll find that the [[Corporation_Hangars|corporation hangars]] will have the ships and modules you need. If the uni is at [[war]], try and do all this before accepting the invite to join, it makes things safer and easier.
