Clothes, shoes and food are not the only things you need to begin your college life. Since it is my fourth year of college, I have identified these items from my own must-have collection. You will thank me later.

 Bed Sheets and Comforter- Not only does this keep you warm; it also adds a little style to your dorm room.

Mini Fridge- It’s always better to have your own fridge to store your drinks and food plus you won’t have to worry about other people taking your stuff.

Microwave- Within the next four years, you will use this a million times to heat your food. 

Television- You need a way to keep up with your favorite shows like 106 and Park or Teen Mom.

DVD Player (Xbox for those gamers)- This is for those movie night with your friends and those times when you have nothing else to do.

IPod Speaker- If you’re a music lover like myself, these speakers are essential for that day of R&R.

Alarm Clock- That alarm on your cell phone is not always dependable. I tried it before and I was late for class. 

Fan- There will be times when your dorm room will be scorning hot. I know this from personal experience. 

Clothes hangers- Your going to need something to hanger those five suitcases of clothes in that closet.

Shower Caddy- This is the best way to keep up with all your shower needs–from razors to shampoo.

These must-haves will get through your college days.
