So, what all are you guys taking?

<p>All the internationals who will be joining a US Univ this fall - what all will you be carrying with you? And what all will you be buying from there?</p>

<p>I’m not understanding your question.</p>

<p>I think the OP is wondering about the logistics of moving to college: which items to bring from home, which ones to buy in the US, etc. </p>

<p>Four years ago I only brought clothes, a towel, an alarm clock, and enough toiletries to get started. I bought in the US:

  • bedding (ordered online and had it shipped to my school address, so it was waiting for me when I got there)
  • more towels
  • most electric and electronic items (a computer, cell phone, lamps, vans, extension chords)
  • inexpensive dorm items (trash cans, cloth hangers, a shower caddy, etc)</p>

<p>I’ll probably just visit an Ikea, and a Wal-Mart, and get everything I need for my room like a couple days before I formally move-in. From home, I’m taking personal stuff like pictures to put on the walls/desk etc.</p>

<p>@macmill - Barium’s right as to what I meant… i also realized that it was vaguely worded but only after having posted it…</p>

<p>@Barium & Pakipower : thanks for your responses…</p>
