This sounds pretty tough atomicc. I had a similar experience and I think it's very normal to be afraid. I want to share my experience with you because it might give you some hope.
I was kicked out of my parents place in a sort of polite way about a year and a half ago. I took it extremely hard and I went through probably one of the worst break downs I've ever had. I moved into an apartment on my own and I was very afraid that I wouldn't be able to make it, I cried a lot, and I didn't get a lot of support from people unfortunately. So in effect I didn't handle it well at all, I used drugs and alcohol and self mutilation to cope at first. But soon I began to really take pleasure in taking care of myself and I cherished having my own space. I took care of my apartment and I adopted a cat for some companionship. On the better days I really started to enjoy life on my own.
There were some major growing pains but now I absolutely love living on my own and I'm thankful for the experience in hindsight. I learned a lot and I'm better off for it. Hopefully your experience will not be as painful as mine and I hope that you find peace about it like I have.
Maybe try to see it as a blessing in disguise? Because it truly is a privilege that you can go to school and live in a new place. It's going to be a very rich time in your life.
Hope this helps. All the best to you with this situation.
