I'm not sure how it would have been had I not had that distraction.

AMEN!!!! It was the same for me. I would have been MISERABLE those first few weeks without my new home prior to classes starting. They helped me adjust to everything and I thought I was pretty capable & independent already.
ETA: and I went to school back in the dark ages when you had to pay for every minute of long distance calling and NO computers, no email, no cell phones, no texting, no skyping!
