Detailed & organized packing list for college. The things that you want/need along with the little things you might forget all organized by category into a single list! Keep in mind this is just my suggestions! Your list may vary to fit your personal needs & wants! Please leave comments with anything you think is essential that I have forgotten! Enjoy!
*I would also suggest that you communicate with your roommate so you don't spend more money than you need to. For example, one of you buys the rug & microwave & the other buys a fridge & lamp!* Thank you Elyse Lyons for the reminder! I forgot to add that.
