College is an exciting time in life, but if you are going away to college, then you’ll have to move. There is usually more to it than packing up the family vehicle with a bag full of clothes and being on your way. It’s not short term – you’re going to be living away from home for a while.
You’ll want to decide early on what you will take with you to college. While it isn’t a vacation, it’s not exactly a permanent move either. If you’re living in a dorm, chances are you’ll be moving again next year. If you’ll be living in an apartment off-campus it might be a bit more permanent. But either way – dorm or apartment – you’re going to be there long term so you’ll want some creature comforts.
