Spring Admit not doing FPF

<p>Hey everyone,
I was admitted for spring 2011 and just recently sent in my reservation to be on the waitlist for FPF. I was recently struck with somewhat of an anxiety attack when considering the possibility of not getting in, which seems very likely given the late reservation date. Does anyone have any experience with showing up in the Fall without taking FPF? How hard is it to assimilate to college life, and more importantly, how hard is it to establish a strong group of friends? I am honestly terrified of showing up in the spring after a semester of community college and not being able to find a "group" of people to hang out with. Does anyone have any experience with this? Literally any input is welcome.</p>
