skipping a semester

<p>I was supposed to go to Tulane but b/c of Katrina I went to a local college for the fall semester. Now im going back to Tulane but I really feel like absolute **** right now and dont want to go. </p>

<p>Can I take this semester off and start fresh next fall as a FRESHMEN? The reason im asking is because I dont want to be a sophomore and have no friends etc</p>

<p>What exactly is wrong? Is it something that can be posted on here? PM me if ya want.</p>

<p>nah just low self esteem</p>

<p>can you skip a semester and be a freshmen next fall ? hello</p>

<p>You will probably still be a freshman the next semester, yeah. However, you will already have credits from last semester and so you would most likely be a sophmore the following Spring.</p>

<p>Aren't there counselors at your school that you can talk to?</p>

<p>Yes but Im supposed leave tomorrow morning lol</p>

<p>the night before you leave doesn't really seem to be the best time to be asking these questions, and going back to school and keeping busy might be the best way to deal with your self esteem.
i would say go to school and see how you still feel about it. i'm sure tulane's counselors, after this semester off, are especially prepared for students with similar concerns to yours. you can always decide to leave early in the semester, maybe in the next couple days before your classes begin.
so basically you're saying you want to defer your admission and become part of 2010 instead of 2009? i think they would let you do it; the credits from your community college would just be like if you had taken cc credits during high school. and i bet you're not the only one - but that also means that when you start now, no freshman at tulane is going to have friends since this is everyone's first semester there. i hope you figure out something that works for you!</p>

<p>thanks. I think im going to go and see how I like it then decide. The biggest thing is I want to be a part of freshmen orientation. </p>

<p>at the CC i got there late so last semester sucked.</p>
