What to Bring to Campus

What Should You Bring to bte365官网地址?

We’re glad you asked! Here’s a list of things you may want to bring as you transition to the Hilltop! Note: These are just to help you think! They are not all absolutely necessary. 🙂

One of the most important things to remember is that you don’t need to bring your life to college. You have a limited amount of space that you’re probably sharing with another person. Keep it light; keep it neat.

Your life now consists of dorms, classes, dining hall, and lots of fun. Don’t let this list influence you to buy stuff that you’re not going to use. The main thing to keep in mind is saving money and downsizing.

On the other hand, you’re going to be on your own (maybe for the first time) and there may be a lot of things you usually don’t have to think about (laundry supplies, dishes, etc).
