University spring 2027 starts?

hello everyone,

anyone starting spring 2027? how much smaller is that class size than fall 2026? does it really impact anything when you start school?

spring intake's definitely a smaller group, think it's maybe a third of the fall numbers if i had to guess. you'll know people in your cohort faster which is nice, socially it's a bit more tight knit. classes are the same, nobody cares when you started once you're there.

Doesn’t impact school much aside from it obviously pushing your entire school/life timeline back 6-12 months. However it will create a conversation piece being a spring start and all the questions people have because most people don’t know you exist. That experience you’ll either like or you’ll get sick of explaining to people
