Vegetarian or vegan was never really an issue to me until my health started to deteriorate. It improved when I switched to vegetarian and it improved even more when I moved on to vegan.
I didn't do it for ethical reasons. However spiritual reasons did gave me the go ahead to finally give it a try. I had learned that spirits in the spheres of light are all vegetarian. So at any point in my evolution I would have to move to vegan anyway.
If I were you I would set the ethics aside for as long is needed. Try to find a way to make your own food asap.
Your health and your study should come first at the moment.
As soon as you are able to cook your own vegan food I would switch back.
Maybe you could buy a freezer for your dorm. Lots of vegan food can be frozen easily: hummus, bean burgers etcetera. If you can get vegan food elsewhere you could freeze it and then you only need to thaw it and perhaps heat it up in a micro wave before consumption.
I almost always freeze my vegan food to preserve it for a longer time. It happens quite a lot that I have hummus on bread which is more then a month old. Still taste great.
