What to Bring to College! (And What Not to) 

Anyone else binge watching college videos in preparation for going to college in the fall?

I moved to another country for college and I had to fit all my life in a suitcase and a carry on. These are the things I would recommend: - Take a pocket knife that at least has a screwdriver, wine opener and bottle opener. This really comes in handy. - If you love a specific brand of products I would suggest checking to see if they are available in your new country. If they aren't available than buy them in bulk or ask someone to ship them to you. (This was one of my biggest mistakes) - Only bring clothes and shoes that you actually wear. I only brought 4 pairs of footwear (combat boots, flats, high heels, sneakers) and I massively decreased my closet to only 50 lightweight items.( You can always do a garage sale and get some money back from the clothes you don't wear.) Keep in mind that there are a lot of stores anywhere you go and you can always buy something on the spot. - Check the weather conditions for the whole year not only the month you arrive and bring weather appropriate clothes. - Don't bring too many sentimental things with you. - Multitasking products and clothing items are the key. - Space bags will save your life.

I REALLY APPRECIATE HOW YOU SAID THUMB UP INSTEAD OF THUMBS UP. THANK YOU.

also a really good tip is that if you don't already use or wear it at home, you're most likely not going to in college. i brought so many clothes with me that i never wore at home and at the end of the school year i had a bin full off clothes that i never touched lol i loved this video & i could relate to so many of the things you said :)

More college videos?! They're so helpful. Love you Annemarie

Your college videos have been realllllly helpful to me! I'm moving in 2 weeks and every time I RU-vid search something....you have a vid on it! Love it! xx

I love your college videos ! I've been watching them all senior year and now it's my turn to move into college these tips are a big help! :)

Yessss! These videos of yours are always so helpful, and they were how I found your RU-vid channel a year ago

You have no idea how excited I got when I saw this on my feed LOL

"THUMB" up if ur watching in 2016 😂❤️

Omg when you suggested bringing a longboard, at first I thought you said to bring a lawn mower! 😂😂 I was very confused for a hot second.

love this video, i found it so much more helpful than any other video! Love your vlogs too!

I started my senior year of high school on July 30 :-)))))) But it's actually been so great so far! I have 5 AP classes and office assistant during 4th period so I can show new students around and choose which lunch I want to eat everyday :)

Thanks so much for making this video! It was so much more informative than the other videos I have been watching lately

My favourite thing about this was how you had to specify that the tea was hot 😂 like I sat there for ages going sure why would your tea not be hot 😝 #ismaithliomtae

Hey Annemarie! Thanks for your super helpful videos! I was wondering if you could do a video or just give me tips on how to pack for an out-of state school? Like, what to take and how to pack it if you're flying by plane (also what you did about your bike, haha) and what you recommend getting there instead of back at home! I'm from Southern California and I'm going to the University of Hawaii...I've never even been to Hawaii, but I know you have, haha-I really have no clue about what to do! Anyway, thanks a bunch!

Bring a can opener! You will need it!

More videos like this one pliss! WAYY TOO helpful

Thank you so much for this!!😄 3 more weeks til I move in!! Ahhhh!!!❤️❤️

Thanks for making this video! Really helped my sister and I (:

Its so rare in the UK to share a room at university and increasingly rare to have to share a bathroom. So all of your experiences with having to share a room seem so alien to me applying to British uni.

On the weekends do you and your friends have like sleepovers like where you just eat and watch Netflix all night

This was so helpful I can't wait til college!!!!!!!😊😊😊

You're so beautiful and wonderful I love your videos so much! I'm heading to Stanford in the fall and it's kind of far away, like 8 months but this video is already so helpful. ❤️ :)

your eyebrows are slaying 😍

I was actually thinking about getting a mini fridge but I was wondering about how much will I use it too. I'm not sure I still want to see how big my room will be.

That was very helpful! My mom kept saying I should bring a blender to school with me lol! For once I was right! ;)

Will you vlog you moving in to where you are living this year for college

I HAVE THE SAME PILLOW PET!!!!!

See, you say we are lucky, but then we can't wake up to our alarm clock 😂

when you're a freshman in high school yet you're binge watching college dorm vids 😅

2018? Anyone?

I have the same pillow pet!!

How did you hear your alarm through the earplugs? That's what im worried about lol

See you at USC Marshall this year! Fight On!

I love your videos!

I sleep with four blankets 😂 would it be bad if I brought them?

Are people really afraid to bring a cozy blanket because it's babyish?

Thank you!!!

+annemariechase what did you make on your ACT/SAT to attend USC?

My moms name is Annmarie

I'm really late for watching this but I want to go to a big university but the main problem is I don't know how to ride a bike or skate either so I'm just going to have to walk everyone but I am in track so I have good stamina so I'll be okay I guess

My friend Alyssa says that I look kind of like you or that we look alike 😂😂

I am so glad the university i wanna go to either has townhouses or apartments for residence

where are you from?

How much was tuition for you? If you don't mind sharing

I really like you haha not in a lesbian way

I may be watching this video a little late, considering i'm moving into University this afternoon. But anyway.

I am so glad the university i wanna go to either has townhouses or apartments for residence

Can you make a video talking about what it's like being a business major as an introvert and your college experience as a business major?

"Buying water which is free" and Ireland laughs and laughs and laughs

All I think is "perfect browsssss" when I watch your videos

I WANT THAT BLANKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or I at least want to feel it. I LOVE SOFT THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOFTY WOFTY!

protein bars have like 25 grams of sugar lol. that's 6 spoons of sugar

This video is so cool! I just made a video like this on my channel after completing my first semester at MIT. We share a lot of similarities and differences!

Could you do an international student video? I would like to know how to apply for usc and what international students think, if possible. Xx

i just started high school this year and im binge watching cellege videos

haha reminds me that I had bought a desk before moving into my new apartment and then had to return it because it didnt fit! I recommend a measuring tape and taking the dimensions of your room before buying any furniture :P

Y do all these youtubers have that 'TYPICAL' style of doing 'Everything' ... All of them are the same ... None is different ... I'm disgusted

I do have a meal plan and I use my mini fridge a lot. I always have drinks in there, eggs, butter, milk, and food my roommate brings back from home.

I graduate next year

Your tips are the most helpful tips. Thank you 🌻🌻🌻

I would be very thankful if you make a video recommending some scholarship, places to apply or any programs! Thank you P.S I love your videos ❤️

This really helped! Thank you :))

u could just download wattpad its a app for reading wit different books and u can also write books

This video was so helpful!! Btw, when your freshman year ended, how did you transport all the things from your dorm back home?

WHY AM I WATCHING THIS?! I'M IN 8TH GRADE!

Hi~~ I will be studying at USC for Freshman this year n will be living at Fluor Tower. Wanna ask which dorm u lived in during ur time at USC? Any special stuff to pay attention to? Tks! Btw nice videos!

I'm starting college (in Belgium) on september 21st and I'm so excited! This video is so helpful for me so thank you for making it! I love all your videos, especially your vlogs :) xxx

i'm literally pathetic. i'm 14 years old (in 9th grade) in 2019 and i'm binge watching college videos from 2015 😂

Can you make a video on AP classes transfer to college? Another useful video would be how college students decide what classes to take or organize their schedule.

is it just me or does everyone that makes these college advice videos go to USC? I saw one girl from San Diego State but thats it lmao

Yes, please do a video on your experience of being a business major!

thank you so much, this was incredibly helpful

Please say hi to Cally.

Your so gorgeous! And I love your videos!😍❤️❤️

I'm graduating in two years.

I still have about 4 more years till college since I'm class of 2021 but I'm still here :/ Maybe because my school wants me to know who I am, what I want to be, and what college I want to go to. Probably not but y'know

Definitely bring the teddy bear or baby blanket! I think everyone one my small freshman hall had some kind of one. No need to change your routine to look cool- everyone wants a comfort from home

subscribed .thanks

Annemarie, did u end up using your Brita filter often? Would u still recommend getting one if u opt out on the mini fridge? Thanks for the tips! 😊

Really helpful! Can't wait to go to college! 😋😊

I am so glad the university i wanna go to either has apartments or townhouses for residence

Thank you for saying that about bringing baby blankets :) I'm going to college this year and planning to bring mine

I love you 😘😘
