You actually seem to be in a better position then most because you are not deciding whether or not get a dog, you already have one, the issue is whether you will take him or he will stay home, right? So you can always go to school first, settle in for a few weeks and then bring him, or you can take him with you and if things dont work out send him back to your parents.
I also lived on my own, hours from my parents, supported myself and my pets and everything worked out fine. Neither my studies, nor my pets ever suffered. They both got the attention they deserved and needed from me. It can be done and honestly its not even that difficult, its really about whats important to you. I already stated all that in my first post, but you really need to think about what will be important to you while your in school!
