Dorm Room Checklist and Essentials: What to send with your College Freshman

Share this Dorm Room Ideas CheckList with those heading off to college this year!

I put together this Dorm Room Checklist when my son went off to college. I added items for girls also so that any College Student can use this as a guideline as they are packing up to head off to the next step in their lives! You can great Dorm room ideas on Bed Bath & Beyond here

Many students realize they need some of these items once they get there so even if you think you are done shopping, take a look at the list!

Good Luck to all the College Freshman!
