your student on a budget
What
to bring - You can pack a lot of STUFF in a very small space
if you organize well. All your stuff is not gonna fit in your dorm
room. Here's a clue: if it doesn't fit in your car, it probably
won't fit in your dorm room either. Does your roommate have one
you can share?
Be
aware of your school's requirements for health examinations and
vaccination requirements. Some schools are recommending the
Meningococcal vaccination for incoming
freshmen. Some schools require a complete physical before admission,
especially private colleges. Check with the athletic department
of your school if your child will participate in sports. Don't wait
until the last minute to schedule an appointment with your doctor.
You might not be able to get in before it's time to leave for school.
