<p>It has been a while since I was in school, but it sounds like you are being paranoid. On a campus with thousands of students you will constantly be meeting new people. No one will ever ask you if you are a freshman admit or a transfer. After a couple months on campus, I cannot believe anyone would care.</p>
<p>Back when I was in school, my alma mater had “January admissions” in order to smooth the numbers. While most of the class was admitted under the regular program, they offered a couple dozen students from the Wait List an opportunity to enroll in January. Everybody knew they were probably weaker applicants when they showed up a semester after the rest of the class but no one really cared.</p>
<p>Follow your dream. Enjoy the journey. Don’t concern yourself with how others might (or might not) perceive you.</p>
