What to bring for living at college?
A Checklist...
posted over 13 years ago
I will be living in the on-campus apartments (likely Walker, maybe West Hill). I made a list of things but want to make sure I'm not missing anything, so I thought I'd ask some people who have already been through the moving-in process.
Here's my list (as I can currently remember it):
- pots & pans, plates & bowls, utensils (for eating and cooking), cups, potholders & ovenmitt
- bedding
- mattress pad
- cook-in-microwave thingies (like, microwavable rice cooker, veggie steamer, etc.)
I'm not sure yet if I will have a roommate. But in the case that I do, for certain things that may be expensive and/or shared, I was planning on waiting to buy with my roommate:
- couch slip-cover
- lamp
- bathroom decor
and (OR seeing if she already has and is willing to share):
- microwave
- lamp
- TV(?)
I already have cleaning supplies and tools, towels & washcloths.
So, what am I missing? Is there anything I listed that I likely won't need? Is there anything you didn't expect to need, but realized you did after you moved into your new home?
