See i live in london but i do want to like move into like a dorm or whatever, im not worried about that because i get along with anyone who wants to get along with me. im nervous because of how big a step it is and how it could change my life so much, my desired Uni is London College of Fashion because its just amazing + if i dont get that i may as well just die(kidding but ill be upset). I got my first interview on the 15th, then i have to put together an online portfolio for another uni and then another interview on the 18th of febuary its scary because its all becoming so real and its coming so fast
would it be weird, if i started uni at the age of 20
Not at all, plenty of people take gap years and don't start until later on. My uncle was one of them, and one of my friends brothers didn't start college until he was 23.
In my country this whole thing is a bit later, we need to get our half-term school report at first. But I'm gonna apply for Brno University Of Technology to study Civil Engineering, mostly because that's been also my major at high school and I want to continue with it.

oh that's great then... i didn't want to feel old in a class full of 18 year olds
I know everyone probably says this to you but I can't stress how true it is..
Like, everyone's going through the same thing as you. Nobody knows anyone. Everybody wants to make friends.
What I did when I found out my accommodation I went on the accommodation page and saw that a girl had posted she was living in the same flat as me, so I commented like "me too!" and she added me right away. We only chatted briefly about when we were moving in etc etc.. That helped a lot.
And when I arrived, I just put my stuff in my room and didn't bother unpacking right away, and went into the common room/kitchen and she was sat there and it was fine! We just started chatting about who else we were living with (I hadn't met them yet) and stuff like that. It's totally fine. Also you need to remember that when you move in, it's freshers right away! You're so so busy you don't really have time to think about things being awkward. There's so many little things you do with your flatmates like signing up to the doctors, going to the shops, stuff like that, you don't even think that you're with a new group of people. I promise it'll be fine. It felt so natural which I wasn't expecting.
edit: I'm not sure if that even makes sense to someone who lives in America but oh well

NOT AT ALL!
I am from Austria and had no time to study until now because i had do move out, work, get my A-Levels, it all cost money and i had to take two jobs, no time for uni. I am now 24 and finally realize my dream and start studying business and music in the usa this fall.
I feel a bit old, but whatever, better late than never, and it's not like I am 30!
