Martian - I had a list of "dont's" that I was making because I was a flop with my LD relationship, but I realized how ridiculous, negative, and unhelpful that actually was for you! whew.
Instead I offer a single DO: Be her friend first.
You are both alone in cities wishing you had the person you love with you. When lonliness, jealousy, or anger start to creep in, which is natural, step back and ask yourself what she would want from her best friend at that moment.
Your passion and emotion gives you the 'want' for each other, but can be a tricky friend that is easily hurt when ignored. Your friendship will give you the day to day, level-headed patience to get through the time necessary. You seem like a good guy with realistic ideas about what it is going to take, regardless of what she does with school. That flexibility says a lot... Hang in there!
