Sending your Student off to College

Packing - Where do you start?

Plan early- work with your son or daughter to make lists on what the necessities are to bring to college.
Start shopping! Shop for the items that are necessities.
Extension cords, power strips, duct tape and batteries….you can never have too many!
Be selective! Packing two vehicles full and leaving your room empty may not be a good idea! Remember, your whole room cannot fit in the move!
Let your student be in charge of what they pack. Some things are more important then you may know or understand
Pack up the car the night before. The less stress the better!
Pack a couple of surprises! Cookies, cake, pictures etc.
Make sure your student talks to their roommate on who should bring what.
