//Hi friends! Today's video is all about what you SHOULD and SHOULD NOT bring to college for your dorm. I wanted to help you guys with packing for college, including what things you should and should not bring. Packing for your college dorm can be difficult, so make sure you make a list of the things you need and do not need in your college dorm! I'm currently a sophomore at the King's College in NYC. Since i go to college out of state, I really have to be careful with packing for college. These are the things I did and did not use in my college dorm! Let me know if you guys would like to see a college dorm haul, college dorm tour, and a college moving vlog! Those are some of my favorite videos to make :)

DO bring lots of granola bars and quick healthy snacks !! So many times you'll find yourself rushing out the door and it's always good to eat something small rather than nothing at all. And they don't go bad quickly !

@cairo7478 6 лет назад

Delaney Erin You had me at granola bars 😅

@Kaiju_Lord 6 лет назад

Just eat a lot during meals like what I do ;)

@lizhardy8808 6 лет назад

GRANOLA BARS AINT HEALTHY. Avoid sugar so you dont crash and become tired during the day.

@taylorbritt499 6 лет назад

@@lizhardy8808 some of them are? You just have to get the right ones. Obviously some have too much sugar and are bad but some are actually pretty good for you. My mom had a blood sugar disorder and her doctor recommended she ear granola bars when he blood sugar spikes to bring it back down

Bring commmand strips to hang up all of your wall decor! Most schools won't let you use nails to hang stuff up!

@Zero_RY 4 года назад

They sadly won’t let me use command strips

@sarahmcallister2816 7 лет назад

Do bring a mirror for doing your makeup or plucking your eyebrows. Yes, you could probably use the full length one but sometimes when you want to be lazy it will be nice to have a mirror you can sit on your bed with. It doesn't have to be an expensive mirror either.

@viviancao5618 6 лет назад

i got one at kmart for lik 6$ full length

@beyoutify31 7 лет назад

they have a $30 mattress topper memory foam twin xl at target!!

@makeupbykristin1 7 лет назад

I wish I had brought extra sheets and like maybe a board game or something to play with friends on the weekends or something bc it gets expensive to go out every weekend and do something so being able to play games and stuff would have been a ton of fun and inexpensive. I wish I hadn't brought so many decorations so I couldn't hang. Like I just had stuff all over my desk and it was so cluttered. Like simplicity will calm your nerves it almost looks better than having a ton of stuff everywhere

@jordanhamilton5692 7 лет назад

Kristin the board game thing is such a good idea!!

@macayla3183 7 лет назад

On the school supplies bit: I would actually recommend buying a few essentials ahead of time to bring with you! I waited till I got to college to get my notebooks and stuff and when I got to the store there was literally none left. I went to 3 different stores and ended up having to use loose paper for the first couple weeks, which I hated. So I would say just get 2-3 notebooks and some pencils and pens just in case the stores near your school are out! I work at Target and we just put out our school stuff yesterday and are expected to run out in the next couple weeks! Of course we'll get more in, but the later you wait, the less options you have!

@grouch314 7 лет назад

I don't know why I'm watching this. I'm about to go back for my 3rd year. I think the tools thing depends on whether or not you know how to use them. I walked into my flat last year and immediately had to fix the chair and rehang the closet door. Definitely bring at least a hammer, a couple of screwdrivers and an adjustable spanner. You'd be amazed what you can fix with those, even if it's just shutting off the water if a pipe bursts while you wait for a plumber. I took a sewing kit because I'm hard on my clothes so I have to fix them fairly often. With plates and bowls, I kept two of each in the kitchen cupboard and two more in my room under the bed. That way I didn't fill up my cupboards and I had to wash up every day but if I had friends over, they had something to eat off. I'm not a fan of paper plates. I bought some extra hooks and mounted them with the picture hanging command strips. It just gave me more places to hang coats and jeans since I had a very small closet.

@em-alice 7 лет назад

DO bring blue painter's tape! I used it for EVERYTHING: hanging stuff up, fixing ripped folders or notebooks, taping things shut or in place when packing things up so they stay secure and do not break, closing food bags if I didn't have a clip or something, the list goes on... :)

@TheOllianders 7 лет назад

One thing that I really wish I brought with me to college was a rug! My roommate was supposed to bring it but she never did and hitting the linoleum floors at 5:15 in the winter was terrible!!! I completely agree with the mattress pad, but I also really think you should bring are extra large pillows. People can sit on them and they don't take up as much space as chairs do for when people come over! A quick piece of advice for incoming freshman, while moving in and if you're just hanging in your dorm during the first week, keep your door open! You'll be able to meet more people on your floor :)

@michellereedg 7 лет назад

Hey friends!! This video is all about what you SHOULD and SHOULD not bring to college. What are some of your college essentials? What's one thing you didn't need to bring in college? Reply to this comment with your help!! :)

@keelavangrinsven630 7 лет назад

I'd say a mattress topper and pad are essentials for sure! I would also agree that a ton of school supplies and toiletries aren't necessary. They take up so much extra space and I also ended up throwing a lot of mine away when I moved back home for the summer! I love your college videos Michelle... I'd love to see maybe an organization or budgeting/money tips video?! xoxo

@loveandlilacs 7 лет назад

Michelle Reed since I was in a typical dorm room with a roommate, we had beds that could be lofted so tools were actually really helpful for us and the people in my hall! A brita water filter was awesome since our water was never cold or filtered. I wouldn't bring roller blades, skateboards, or musical instruments (unless you are in a related club) because all the I know who had them rarely used them and they just took up space

@azurachannel4748 7 лет назад

Actually I really don't know what I should bring in a college 😂 But thank you so much Michelle, from this video's you give me more inspiration, thankyou..

@paisleighcoan9820 7 лет назад

So one thing I wish I had known my freshman year is to bring a mop! Y'all that dorm floor is DISGUSTING. Trust me. Bring your swifter & lots and lots of the refill things. And one thing that I didn't need was don't bring your whole wardrobe & all your shoes. Lol. Your closet is so small so there's no room

@Elmobear55 7 лет назад

@amberkhan8034 7 лет назад

The leisurely book reading is REAL! Being an English major, I tend to have to read more classics/other books than the novels I brought with me due to my classes. This left little time for my own reading/writing and just took up space. Though if you WANT to bring books, is at least recommended small paperbacks and on,y your top favorites.

@everythingisa3some659 5 лет назад

Amber Khan have you tried a Kindle? I have one that I carry around for reading instead of carrying around lots of books 😊

@saml815 7 лет назад

It's nice to consider getting some sort of activity to do with your roommates, such as cards or board games! Personally, my roommates and I got really into puzzles! It was easy for us to bond over because it requires a bit of teamwork, plus it's easy to chat while you're doing it. Not to mention that puzzles are nice because you can easily take a break from them if need be! We found lots of small ones at dollar tree, and there's a puzzle exchange at our public library, so it was a cheap activity as well!

@latagaw80c 7 лет назад

I totally agree with you on the school supplies, the only things i ever keep in my bookbag is a 5 subject notebook (so that it's all in one place), a small binder with dividers, my laptop, my planner and a few colored pens and I've found that just bringing those few things does the trick

@NerdFunction 6 лет назад

I'm an incoming freshman at Adelphi so I didn't bring anything to my dorm yet but i already have most of supplies from your what to bring sections. For my fellow freshman, I recommend asking your residential office for a checklist of what to bring or during your orientation, ask the office or any upperclassmen you might see. Most colleges will have one to prevent students from over packing and of course you can learn from the other students' mistakes or successes. Also it can save you alot of money if you buy value paks from your school's dorming store. I had bought one from Adelphi's ocm and now I don't have to worry about my linens, topper, pillows or even a laundry bag and storage. The good thing about it is that I basically paid $108 + shipping for items I would have bought in total for maybe $200 or more at stores.

For mattress toppers, make sure you take a trip to your nearest TJMaxx, Marshalls or HomeGoods, especially now (during the summer, I mean) since they have all the college stuff up and mattress toppers for XL twins are widely available at a price that is not so crazy. I had to do a little bit of digging for mine, but I just got it for $25 which is not bad!

@AbbyAsselin 7 лет назад

do you know of any alternatives to having a dresser? I'll be a sophomore in college this year and I'll have an apartment. I want to buy a dresser for my room but don't really want to spend ~$150 on one. I will have a decent sized walk in closet but my apartment isn't furnished so I'm torn between buying a dresser or not

@ForeverRachel22 7 лет назад

Abby Asselin the dresser i have right now is from ikea and was only $60!

@lauramays9622 7 лет назад

I'm going to be a sophomore next year, also in an apartment! For a dresser I just bought one of the big 3 x 3 target cube organizers! I had a 1x 3 last year in my dorm and I ended up using it to store extra clothes and it works just as well as a dresser! I'm not sure how much money they are because I actually bought mine from a senior that I knew who was moving out and selling it for a cheaper price, but I don't think they're too expensive from target! You can also go on the Facebook market place and probably find one or a real dresser for pretty cheap!!

@loveandlilacs 7 лет назад

Abby Asselin I used plastic drawers you can get from Walmart/target and they were awesome! They have cute ones also and I'm using all mine again in my apartment as a dresser instead of buying and big bulky one!

@myheartisyourheart98 7 лет назад

The stackable plastic drawers at Target are perfect for clothes!!!! Highly recommended :) and easy to move, most have wheels so if you want to move it around it'd be so easy!

@KkheartsMaK 7 лет назад

Abby Asselin depending on how many clothes you need to be storing you can find cube shelving units that fit the foldable cubes in them for probably around $50 instead of $150.

If you still want books to read, I would recommend a Kindle. They don’t take up much space, have a long charge, and are affordable. Plus they remember where you left off, and you can write long notes.

@sun-is7pm 4 года назад

I'd say bring a single tool box instead of a bunch of them. I have this smallish one with everything I could ever need in it it would be totally helpful when hanging things and stuff.

@maiasitter677 6 лет назад

She said not to pack a lot of kitchenware...but my 6 person apartment has a kitchen and I'm going to be cooking pretty much all of my food to save money. So...I think I'm gonna bring it. People staying in the dorms wouldn't need to, but I certainly do. I want to save money and eat healthy, not the crap that you can find on campus. Anybody with me? I think that it just depends on what your priorities are. Edit: Oh. She meant not a lot of plates and glasses. Lol. That makes sense. I'm gonna be meal prepping a lot, so I'll probably be eating out of mostly Tupperware anyways. 😁

@mbal06749 6 лет назад

One thing I wish I hadn't brought to college is excessive underbed storge. At my school they give you a desk and a dresser and a bed. The desk and dresser have a lot of storage already and if you get those really big 3 drawer bins they have at like target, you can't put your dresser under you bed and therefore save a lot of room. I not only found that I didn't really need them but they took up too much space in the small dorm.

I'm so hoping you see this comment because I'm really curious and have no idea what to do about this. You mentioned getting mattress toppers, which I'm definitely going to get, but I don't know how many! I'm going to get the typical egg crate topper, but I'm not sure if I should another memory foam one, like the one you described, or if I should get one that's like built into the mattress protector sheet? Please help me! I'm starting my freshmen year this Fall and I want to be as prepared as possible. Thank you :)

@Itscheyennexoxo2 7 лет назад

I recently just bought a mattress topper for my dorm bed and I was having the same problem. If you can get both it will definetly benefit you. If you just have to choose one try and see which one is the softest and most comfortable in store before you buy.

I am a rising sophomore (I go back in a couple of days) and I felt guilty when you talked about not bringing kitchenware because I steal kitchenware from the dining hall

The only thing for decor I'm bringing to college is the picture of my best friend and me. I swear if I don't have that I'm not going to survive!

Do you have to bring documents isn’t important if you need to work while in school

Quick tip if you need to fix any clothes: if your school has a theater department go down to the costume shop and just ask if you can use a machine!
