Is missing the first semester in college bad?

Did you already pay for your 1st semester bill? If so, I would encourage you to see if there was a friend or other family member who could bring you to move-in or lend your mom a car for a day, so you wouldn’t miss that first semester. However, if you have been able to work this out with the school and going this fall is just out of the question, then I would say you will be fine starting in January. Many schools have incoming January “starts”, and you will quickly meet people and settle in. Will your mom be able to pay for the University or could that be doubtful?
