I'm planning on moving into a dorm in the next month or so..And I think I need some tips on pretty much everything. On being organized, bringing the right things, and of course getting along with my roommate and not driving her nuts. Any ideas? Or websites that may help me out ? Thanks!

I would say the biggest problem that I experienced last year in my dorm (yea im a sophomore now) was bringing people over to the room. Don't know if you know your roommate already, but if you don't, that is something you definitely need to talk about ha my roommate joined a frat and would bring over his brothers every night until like 4 am and I would have 730 classes and since your in a dorm, you don't have your own room to go to, so you have to deal with the noise and stuff. So figure out how its gonna be with bringing people back to the room, and also bringing back guys to the room and stuff. That was the biggest thing I remember from last year. Good luck in your first year too :)

Make sure that the dorm you will be transferring should be near on the school, market, street for riding if you are commuters, not a flooded area, far from vices place. You need to bring all the materials that you are needing like foods, clothes, and all the materials for cooking, bathing, ironing. Be sure that all of them are in organized place so that when you look for it you can easily get them and back them again.
