Thank you
I love you
I literally love you

moving in in a month and i never realized how expensive dorm shopping was until i started doing it 😂
I know I’m must of spent about 2000 dollars and I still need bathroom things ughh
@@randyhopps7421 thankfully i don’t need to buy lots of bathroom stuff since i have a communal bathroom this year, but i’ve def spent a lot of money already 😬
@@clairekeller7765 I'm getting an apartment...so hah my wallet will be crying I'm also out of state but I'm moving with my bf so it'll be a bit cheaper
about how much did you end up spending in all if you still remember?
@@urleenthind7941 yikes probably around $400
please never delete this video haha i’m coming back when i’m packing for college!
me too lmaoo
Same!!! I’m only on middle school but I’m already packing lmao
@@omelettexmoa2995 same here haha
hey guys...I’m probably gonna go to boarding school soon 😭😭 and I’ve watched SOOO many of these videos. So basically I combined all the things that several TH-camrs tell you to pack for both college and boarding school into a google doc…if you’re interested in checking it out here is the link 💖: docs.google.com/document/d/1ckfWJJ0waMeG4nWBN2UuqVNV3Wd_wLOPxuGpDP89fs0/edit?usp=sharing
if you can be kind enough to comment with some suggestions please do that to
@@rwarh419it’ll be here before you know it! I feel like it was yesterday that I was in middle school, but now I’m about to leave this fall for LU
agree with everything except for the fabric shower caddy; I just occasionally rinsed out my plastic one and never had problems, I actually feel like the fabric shower caddy is more likely to get mold
Same, I used a plastic one from target and it worked just fine.
Yeah it's the other way around. The fabric will get moldy, plastic cannot grow mold.
Really makes me realize how dependent we are on our materialistic items. This video was very helpful and efficient.
I’m packing now :)
I would’ve NEVER thought of stamps! Im going out of state for school and I,d love a video with going out of state advice!
This is the most detailed college packing list I've seen. Thank youuu
i agree, especially with the mattress protector!! I also bought multiple sheets in case the laundry room was busy/i didn’t have time. I also made a college essentials vid and mentioned a lot of the same things :)
Did you end up using multiple sheet sets? I’m debating how many to bring in the fall.
@@conniehwood I’m going first in the fall too but I think you should bring sheets depending on how often you do laundry. Like I do laundry pretty often, so I would only have to bring like 2. If you aren’t as proactive in doing laundry then probably bring more sets. But also ur preference!
Honestly I think this is the best what to pack for college I’ve watched
Instead of a steamer, hear me out, I use my hair straightener. I already use it and it does the job quickly when you need it!
Thank you for this!! I’m going to be a freshman this fall and love watching videos like this 💕
good luck!!💕💕
Sameee
Same !
Same
Sameeee😂😂😂 I moving in like in 2 weeks making sure I’m not forgetting anything!!
I’m like two minutes in and this is already the most useful form advice video I’ve seen!! Thank you so much!!
currently prepping for my first year of college and this is so helpful!
I’m making a list for my son who’s going to college in a few weeks. I’ve watched a lot of these videos but yours is the best one I’ve seen. You had a lot of great ones that I didn’t even think of. Thanks for posting😊
I can’t believe you have finally uploaded Welcome back ,it’s been so long, I’ve been waiting still a great video as always , I really missed your videos I’ve been watching your Instagram stories and was so excited when I saw you said you were uploading today, can’t wait for the others videos you filmed and the great videos to come during summer, hopefully you hit 100k this summer your so close. This video is going to very helpful since I’m going to college in a few months! Love your videos as always. Roads to 100k and 10k let’s get you there before summer ends
thank u so much lol im gonna be a college freshman this year and none of the other videos were this thorough!
I missed your videos! You’re my fav TH-camr❤️
This is the most useful video I’ve watched not like oh bring a shower caddy and storage bins. Also what not to bring would be super helpful vid
im so excited im a freshman in the fall and honestly cant wait!!
Same !! Fall 2021 🥺
Even tho I’m last minute shopping for college stuff this legit SAVED MY LIFE!!!😩
literally the most helpful video i’ve seen, TY!!
yess!! please make a video on advice for out of state students!!
Me watching this while in my last year of junior high: 📝 😌
Bahaha same idk why I'm here but I AM AND I'M STAYING
Samee
Can say as a first year going into second, this is very helpful for first years
I'm saving this for next year. I'm about to start my senior year and this going to end up lifesaving in a couple of months when I'm stressing out over this. Thank you in advance.
Have so much fun this year!! Senior year can be crazy but it can also be so much fun.
i checked your channel so many times and finally you upoaded again 😍😍 really in need of this list
aww yay i’m glad!!!
Hey Audrey! I’m going into high school next year but I still love watching videos like this so I can get a heads up on everything once I get to that point! Can you make a video on high school things, like what to look out for, studying techniques, and other things like that? (If she already has, please put the link in the reply’s of this comment!) Thank you!
I cannot thank you enough for suggesting the bed suspenders. The bed never looked so good for a lazy morning person. Everyone should get it! Worth every penny 😊
Ahh this is so helpful I move into college in the fall and I feel like I’m going to miss sooo much but also my list is already crazy crazy long
She has mentioned literally everything you will ever possibly need 🔥💯
pleaseeeeee do out of state advice!!! that would be so helpful! 🤍
week till i move in and this video is coming in clutch thank you!
For me I loved your vlogs gurl because you are amazing vibe and your thumbnails is amazing and you are gorgeous New subscriber
I would recommend get one of this Nite Ize Hitch Phone Anchor you just put under your cell phone case and you can clip your house /car key to it along with a lanyard or a wristlet . you can get it from amazon I have seen them at lows also
This was so great and thorough! Only thing I might add is Keurig for tea, coffee,hot chocolate (maybe I missed it. And another blogger mentioned how helpful having a printer in your room is! Early morning/late night printing can save a trip to the library in rain or snow. And back pack water protector if in a rainy/snowy area.
a printer is good but keep in mind that everyone and their mother might be asking you to let them use it
im going to a school really close to austin so this helps so much!! thanks!!
i would love to see a rush tips video! i'm rushing in the fall at ut and i'm super nervous
One thing about the fridge/microwave. My school had an arrangement where you could rent a fridge/microwave combination. My roommate and I both used the microwave but we had a seperate fridge. Also with the fridge, check with the school on dimensions.
Yes please do a going out of state alone vid!
Hiii! This video is so hopeful Im a sophomore transfer international student this upcoming fall, and I don’t know what to pack but this 100% helped so much!!🙌🏼🥺
ah omg good luck i hope you have so much fun!!!!
@@audreyatienza omgg thank you for answering🥺🤗 thank youuu for your tips!!
I'm moving from AZ to TX this August. This was helpful

This was so helpful!! Thanks!!
I would like to see this girl's spacious dorm rooms, mine will be as big as a hallway, with two beds, one at each side
and with corridor in the middle wide as a another bed, two desks under the windows and that's it.
I wouldn't know how to fit even half of your list in there without me and my roommate suffocating
this is a super good list but you're right, there's no room whatsoever
Thank you so much ❤️this was really helpful
I live off campus and all the things I packed are the following:
Cot, blanket, and a pillow
Sleeping pad, sleeping bag and inflatable pillow
Lightweight tent
Mountaineering/Backpacking backpack 75L
Lightweight backpacking cooking set and water filtration system
My climbing gear
Foldable desk and lamp
Foldable chair
16 shirts + 5 gym shirts
4 pants
4 shorts + 5 gym shorts
10 socks (wool and synthetic)

Laptop
First aid kit and sewing kit
Toiletries (bar soap, 2-1 shampoo, razors, shaving cream, dental floss, toothpaste, anti transpirant, and cologne)

I have a similar list minus mountaineering gear replaced by softball gear and no sconce specific major stuff.
This is a pretty solid list.
i hope it’s not just me but i’ve been watching college videos like moving in and what to expect etc and i still have three years till i have to go
Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you so much my school didnt give me a list i am saving this video for later when i go shopping
I have to buy a bed and everything for my apartment but these are interesting to watch in case I forgot something crucial
The best tip anyone can give for packing is this simple question: Do you really need it?
wow this helped so much im moving to campus so it helos
I am attempting to go to college starting in springg... girl im scared but excited 🥲
Thankyou so much! I’m moving out of state and very nervous
i’d love a ‘going out of state’ advice vid!!!

Needed this
CHECK YOUR DORM some dorms don't have mini fridges office max sells sets of mini fridge and microwaves
In Hawaii make sure you have a dehumidifier or your clothes will mold and stink from the heat and water in the air
Welcome back
🤍🤍🤍
am i watching this in middle school?
yes, yes i am.
Where your phone case come from? it’s so pretty 😊
thank you I'm moving from out of state to Texas in the fall ahh
moving in tomorrow & this vid made me realize i forgot to pack belts & my makeup mirror lol
I’ve been trying to find a good lamp for my dorm I’m gonna be a freshman this year the two lamp links in the description didn’t work so if you have an updated link or what I could search to find the lamp that would be really helpful thank you for this video I greatly appreciate it I’m also using text to speech because I’m too lazy to type lol
omg where is ur shirt from?!
me in middle school: good good 📝📝👀
me not going into like live in a college :
watches for fun :)
hi, I love your bedding in your room, I was wondering where u got it from
ikea!
it’s currently December and won’t be going to college until next fall, but i’m an overthinker and i need to be prepared lol
honestly it’s good you’re thinking ahead
Hi! This link to the desk lamp doesnt work anymore, does anyone know what it was?
What brand is your desk lamp?
How do you loft your bed?
1. So I’m in a suite dorm, should I still bring shower shoes?
2. Should I bring a printer? I already own one and I don’t want to pay for printing but I also don’t everyone asking me to print stuff and running out of ink since it’s so expensive.
3. Should I bring a rolling laundry or a backpack laundry?
Absolutely bring shower shoes. People used the shower before you got there
is it socially acceptable to bring ur favorite sweatshirts if they r for other colleges
G a sp
My name is also Audrey! I'm going to college soon and I'm glad I found you!
did you buy your desk organizers before or after you moved in? there's some items that i want to buy but I'm hesitant to buy them in case they don't fit
for drawer organizers i bought them after i moved in actually!! if that’s what you’re asking
i’m a sophomore in hs idek why i’m watching this
I’m not even accepted into college yet 😂 I still need to apply and I’m watching this
I'm already accepted and I'm watching this and I'm a little nervous for my first year 😅
What size is your duvet or comfort of your bed is tall , ? Thanks
i feel like this is almost everything you don't need. a lot of the things mentioned are to make your life easier, not necessities for college
Hi
what residence hall were you in for your freshman year! because I am hoping to go to UT fall of '22 and I want a private bath with one roommate lol
Duren and San Jacinto dorms both have private baths!
Question- should I bring a mattress topper or a new mattress?
My mom wants me to bring a new mattress but I don’t want to over do it
a mattress topper is all you really need! a new mattress would be hard to bring plus you’d still have the one they provide you with (but make sure they provide you with one)
We cannot use command hooks :(
