Accepted to fall semester can I start in the spring instead?

<p>I applied to a university as a first time freshman, accepted, great, whatev. I applied for the fall semester to start in the fall but am currently going through financial torment and there's no possible way I can even think about affording college right now. I was wondering if schools let people who applied for fall semester start in the spring instead? What office at a college do I contact about this? If this happened to you how was it?</p>

<p>I think some or most colleges would let you defer admissions to up a to a year. You should contact your admissions counselor and see what your options are.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>
