Shouldn'y be a huge disadvantage. Basically its Tuesday and Thursday which are the days I think usually assigned as "college days"-you have induction lectures, which are just admin. If you get to chose modules, i think you sign up for them officially then. I'd let someone in the support team for your course/college know so they can tell you what to do.

Final day of freshers (sunday) is the fair, where you can sign up for soceties all in one place. I couldnt find most of what i wanted to do, so ended up going to their events and signing up later on-no problems doing that either. Other things are taster events, but usually a society/club will let you come to one event for free just to try it out if you want.
