<li>2 laundry baskets</li>
<li>soap</li>
<li>shampoo</li>
<li>deodorant</li>
<li>shower stuff</li>
<li>shower flip flops</li>
<li>healthy snacks</li>
<li>orange juice</li>
<li>cereal</li>
<li>milk (when I get there)</li>
<li>clothes for fall and winter</li>
<li>shoes and boots </li>
</ul>

<p>school supplies:
- calculator
- 6 spiral notebooks
- 6 folders
- 2 3 ring 1 inch binders
- 3 things of flashcards
- pencils

<p>Edit: I also got detergent*</p>

3

<p>Bedding?</p>

4

<p>Yeah, I have bedding stuff too, forgot to mention that! Sorry!</p>

5

<p>Towels? </p>

<p>I’d leave one laundry basket at home.</p>

6

<p>If you are a girl, don’t forget to get you are makeup stuff. SERIOUSLY… they are too important.</p>

7

<p>Lol, I’m not a girl, so I won’t have to worry about that, thanks. And i have towels too, thanks :3</p>

8

<p>Tooth brush and tooth paste. Dental floss, if you use it. </p>

<p>Toilet paper. </p>

<p>You’re often better off buying a lot of these things once you get there. It’s fewer things that you have to move that way. </p>

<p>If you’re bringing orange juice and milk, do you have a refrigerator? </p>

<p>I highly recommend some kind of recorder for recording the lectures. I find it is a HUGE help when preparing for tests to be able to hear the lectures again instead of just reading notes, and the studying feels less tedious using 2 different mediums. I started with a regular recording device, and now I’m using an iPad app that records and you can take notes on it while recording. Either one works great!</p>

<p>I personally have never had a desire to record lectures. I know it does help some people though.</p>

<p>Just as a side note…if you do plan on recording lectures ALWAYS ask the professor first. Some of them do not want their lectures recorded due to intellectual property concerns. </p>

<p>Indeed, some schools now have no-recording policies following embarrassing youtube moments.</p>

13

<p>Ok, then. and sorry…</p>

<p>unless you take notes that are basically books you really won’t need all those binders and notebooks.</p>
