Right, not into Hogwarts, but he can Apparate to the gates, can't he :-)? Or he can use the Floo network to get to Hogsmead and then walk to the school. Maybe he was too weak to meet Dementors in big numbers at the school entrance, if he traveled alone? 

OTOH, he left the school at the end of the book also by a carriage, IIRC, which is more difficult to explain, because Dementors were not there anymore. I would guess he was not strong enough to go through Apparition, because it is rather challenging physically, but he did it all right in DH, so I don't know what to think :-).
