Are there any problems with entering college in the spring semester?
I've recently gotten accepted to a good college, but with admission deferred to spring semester. Once I get in, I'll be student just like any students, but I was wondering if there were any academic or social problems with not entering in the fall with most admitted freshman. Does anyone have any experience with this? #college #college-admissions

Hi Kira! Thanks for submitting a question. I wouldn't be nervous about this! The one thing I will say, is some people around you may have already found some close friends, but the first day of a new semester is a first day for everyone! So the people next to you in class may not know anyone either. My advice is that when you get to campus, get involved! Most colleges have involvement fairs to find clubs you're interested in. They may not have one in the spring (my school had a small one), but they will have one in the following fall! You have plenty of time to make friends and get settled into the college lifestyle. Don't be nervous and just be open minded about friends and opportunities when you get there!
Hope this helps and best of luck to you!
