Campus Life: What to Expect

What to Bring to College When you go away to college for the first time, you want to make sure you’re prepared. You may be living on your own for the first time, so there could be some items you wouldn’t normally consider taking because someone at home, such as a parent or guardian, usually takes care of them for you. Consult your college acceptance literature for any specific items your college asks you to bring. If you’re able, touch base with your roommate prior to school to make sure you’re not bringing duplicates of large items such as TVs, couches or refrigerators. Having double will just take up space and make for a less comfortable environment.
