Confused on fall and spring admissions!?

<p>so a friend and i both want to go to the same college but im applying for the fall semester while he is going to apply for the spring semester.My questions are 1) Are we susspsed to take a fall and spring semester back to back? or if u take fall semester you skip the spring one? 2) if he takes spring and I take fall will we be in the same "freshman" class? im sorry if all these questions are silly,but I really just don't know @_@<em>noob</em></p>

<p>A typical year is a fall semester and a spring semester…back to back…so your freshman year may run Sept 2014 to May 2015. Has your friend said why he is applying for Spring? This would put him a semester behind you - perhaps he doesn’t have the money to start in the Fall. He could probably make up classes by taking more at a time or taking summer classes to catch up.</p>

<p>thank you so much for clearing this up^_^!! i think my friend has to take spring semester cause he never took an SAT or ACT test and he says there is no more testing dates till october (I wasnt the slacker and took mine XD)</p>
