The perfect gift for freshers – the gift of clean air!

Parents looking for gift ideas to send their offspring off to university or college this year could help their health and concentration by buying them a Blueair air purifier.

While student accommodation can be renowned for dirty dishes, filthy floors and the odd suspicious smell, the quality of air is often less focussed on. When freshers move into university accommodation with new housemates, bacteria and germs can spread fast. Giving the gift of a Blueair Pure 411 for their bedroom means your fresher friend or relative will breathe healthy, clean air and help them to study better.

“Many of us spend as much as 90% of our time indoors and what few know is that indoor air is up to five times more polluted than outdoor air. The Blue Pure 411 has a 360° air intake, which removes dust, pollen, cooking smells and even smoke particles,” comments Sara Alsen, Chief Purpose Officer at Blueair.

With optional pre-filters available in 3 colours, the 411 can also match your interior design style. Blue Pure 411 is whisper silent (it is Quiet Mark approved), energy efficient and the one-button speed control makes it easy to use. Just grab it, place it wherever you want, plug it in, and breathe perfectly clean air 24/7.

About Blueair

Blueair is one of the world’s leading producers of air purification solutions for home and professional use. Founded in Sweden, Blueair delivers innovative, best-in-class, energy efficient products and services to consumers in over 60 countries around the world.

New Campus Essentials Guide!

By Dr. Fran Walsh.

It is important and good for the child to enter the classroom already knowing a friend. We are all interdependent human beings. Even more than adults, kids need a companion or partner to combat feeling alone and isolated at school. Every child needs and wants to belong to a group, both within their family and at school,in order to feel validated and accepted. (Because of the complexities within families and the breakdown of many families, we have a growing problem of kids joining gangs so that they will feel they belong and own a place within a group). Partnering your youngster up with a friend BEFORE school starts is like depositing insurance dividends into your child’s social bank account.

The younger the child the more important the relationship is with his teacher. The reason is to help the child with the ongoing separation process that continues beyond preschool and into kindergarten and the early elementary grades. As your child matures,he and she need to be prepared for middle and high school, college, and adult life which involves requirement to relate to superior authority figures whether we like them or not. We’ve all had high school teachers whom we couldn’t stand and/or thought didn’t like us. We simply don’t get to choose and are forced to get along with the teacher we are assigned to. Many kids entering school are shy at the beginning of the year. Some feel an apprehension or fear of authority figures (teachers included). Establishing and nurturing a warm, friendly relationship between your child and her teacher is the antidote to her fears and hesitation. You want your child to be comfortable enough to go to her teacher for support and kindness when unexpected conflicts or confusion emerge in the classroom and especially during recess and lunch when most teachers relax, take a break, and lighten up on child supervision.

The children at Jewett Middle Academy in Winter Haven, Florida were needlessly traumatized by careless, clumsy planning and procedure followed by the Winter Haven Police Department. The objective for any type of school “drill” including one for fire, earthquake,or school shooter is to reduce anxiety – not raise it. These 6th, 7th,and 8th graders were terrified when the police officers burst into classrooms brandishing guns, including an unloaded AR-15 rifle, that found students huddled in the dark face-to-face with the gun barrel. The teachers,parents, and kids were not alerted, prepared, or forewarned that this was a drill so, in fact, most of the kids believed it to be a real ‘active shooter’situation on school campus. The WHPD used extremely poor judgment. The kids affected by the unfortunate events of today’s surprise school drill will likely reopen the wound of terror, fear, and be re-traumatized if and when faced with an active shooter in real life. Some of the children effected may experience sleep disruption, nightmares, decrease in appetite,change in mood, anxiety, and mild depression – all signs of Post Traumatic Syndrome Disorder (PTSD). Parents should do everything possible t reassure their kids that the police made a mistake. Add that most schools do not experience an active shooter although, on rare occasions, it happens. Allow your child to talk and tell you what happened. Do not interrupt with too many questions….just let him speak without interruptions. Encourage your child to draw a picture of what occurred that she saw. The more you can supportively help your child express the story in narrative language and expel some of the intensity the better for your child to process the trauma, repair, and move forward. Suggest that your school provide safe, supportive counselor-led groups on-campus where the kids who were effected can join together in a group setting and take turns talking and listening to each other. It is very helpful in the healing process to express the narration of sequence of events in a chronological, organized way. This leads to integration of the traumatic experience and helps the person resolve and move forward from the trauma.

For teens going away to college, here are some essential things to include. It’s almost that time — time for college students to be heading back to school. For millions of students, that means getting acquainted with new roommates or getting reacquainted with old ones.Below are Dr. Fran’s tips for getting along with your college roommate(s) and what a student can do to make the 
relationship as harmonious as possible.
Everyone has a different personality. Some personalities mix better with others while some clash. In a college where you are assigned a dorm roommate it can feel like the luck of the draw. You simply don’t know who or what you’re going to get. For college students heading back to school and those who are getting acquainted with new roommates follow these tips to ease the transition.

With adult roommates, you have the chance to meet, greet, screen, and choose. Living with another person requires adjustments and compromise. Certainly, if your roommate leaves her TV playing at full volume all night long and disrupting your sleep, you have every right to complain! When it comes to your roommate having loud sex that annoys you it is important to ask yourself a couple of questions including:what time of day or night are they creating the disturbance? (if it’s between the hours of 8am-11pm, keep your mouth shut); are you envious that your roommate is getting more action than you are? (If this is the case, put tape on your mouth and cotton in your ears and own up to your jealousies!). If the noises are happening in the middle of the night and interfering with your sleep, then you need to deal with the issue directly with your roommate.

“How To Talk To Your Roommate If You Hear Them Having Sex & You’re Annoyed”:

Absolutely, WAIT and discuss the issue with your roommate privately rather than confronting the couple during their sexual encounter. Your relationship is with your roommate, not his or her partner!

Do not talk with your roommate about your personal “upset”. Instead, focus on the noise disruption interfering with you getting a good night’s sleep. Say something like, “The walls are thinner than we may think and want….I can hear you and your boyfriend “relating” to each other in the middle of the night and it’s waking me up. Can you please keep it on low?”

First, try moving your bed to the other side of your bedroom. Perhaps, you won’t be disturbed if you’re sleeping at the opposite side of quarters. Then, try using earplugs. Truth is that when you bring in a roommate you must assume that they will engage in sexual activities, just as you will. Everyone expresses their sexual pleasure at a different speed and different volume. Everyone has the right to eat,sleep, and have sex!

Adopt humility. However special you were made to feel in your own family by your parents know that in this setting you are an equal player. Come in with an attitude of ‘we are all the same new kids on the block’. The one sure turn-off to peers is when a rookie walks in thinking he’s above everyone else.

Be generous. If someone needs something and you can help, do it. Share and give of yourself. You can be sure the shoe will soonbe on the other foot.

Participate in group activities. If your roommates invite you to a Bar-b-que, movie, or hanging-out night join in the social fun. It’s a perfect way to bond and get closer to your buddies.

Organize a study group. Doing homework assignments can feel isolating, tedious, or boring. It can actually be fun when you add the social element of working alongside friends.

Do laundry, dorm/housecleaning, and grocery shopping with your roommates. Whether you practice chores weekly or once every two weeks, it goes faster and can be less of a drag when you collaborate with your friends. Be a team player!

‘student saving’ by Lavina Chainani, Head of Student Recruitment at London College of Contemporary Arts (LCCA).

As a student, you are entitled to some perks and student discounts with your Student ID, NUS extra card (now TOTUM) and ISIC card for discounts abroad.
You can apply for these cards online and they can save you money in many retail outlets and services. In addition, a great number of shops and retailers, restaurants and even venues and museums regularly offer student discounts; most of the time this is advertised on their website or locations, but don’t be afraid to ask, as the discount might still be applied even when not specified.

If you’re commuting from outside London to study, travel expenses might have an impact on your finances, but you can easily apply for a railcard and save up to a third on travel costs for £30 a year. Websites such as “Save the Student” can give you further information on how you can save whilst being a student.

It is a good idea to make a budget for yourself to make sure that you are not overspending whilst at university. Managing your money is very important during these three years.
Calculate how much your monthly bills and rent will be so that you are aware of what you have left over for groceries, social activities, outings, travel, clothing, footwear & hobbies.

Shop for groceries and only eat out when absolutely necessary – this will save you money and be beneficial for your health!

If you are living with flatmates and paying shared bills, it is a good idea to have a system whereby everyone pays their share in advance so there are no issues when the bill is due. A shared bank account for the flat may be a good idea so everyone is responsible for payments. You can set up direct debits for monthly bills: make sure there is enough money in the account so you don’t go into overdraft as you may incur charges and this may affect your credit rating.
Many banks offer a student bank account which will offer you certain perks and flexibility.

It is common for students to get a part-time job to help fund their studies which will not only prop them up financially, but may also help them build their CV for the future. Part-time student jobs don’t necessarily need to be in retail or hospitality. Visit your career services, as they may be able to help you with your CV and to put you in contact with companies who offer part-time experiences to students. There are many job search engines which list jobs for students.

Finally, it is a good idea to speak to your tutors and lecturers, if you are looking for something related to your degree.

Calling All Freshers! Get Ready for Uni Guide from Robert Dyas

A-level results are in and the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) has revealed that a record number of young people have applied to university this year.* In the next few weeks, many homes up and down the country will be filled with excitement and anticipation as rookie students get preparations underway for student life away from home, but no doubt there will also be some feelings of trepidation.

High street retailer, Robert Dyas, is a British institution and has some sound advice for the new recruits as they head off on their great adventure. The key to making a smooth and relatively stress-free transition from home comforts to living away from home for the first time lies in the preparation. Being organised and set up from the start with all the right kit will make for a successful launch into university life so you can relax and solo like a pro.

To help ease Freshers into their new surroundings, they have come up with some handy tips, ideas and solutions to make a student’s debut memorable for all the right reasons.

Survival of the Fittest

Give yourself a fighting chance against the dreaded Fresher’s flu by taking good care of yourself from the outset. Staying fit and healthy, at least in the few first few weeks, is important as nothing will make you feel more homesick than feeling ill early on.

If you are in self-catering halls, start by eating well. Healthy and simple solutions for novice chefs include grilling or steaming food. Grilling is an efficient way to cook, saves energy, preserves nutrients and you eat less fat. The compact George Foreman 2 Portion Grill (£19.99) features a sloping grill which channels the fat and grease directly from your food into the drip tray, for healthier meals.

Steaming will help food retain the nutritional value. Cook up a feast with the Robert Dyas 3 Tier Stainless Steel and Silver Steamer (Was £12.99 now £9.74) which is ideal for steaming vegetables, fish or even making rice. Minimum effort is required for a healthy three-course meal in minutes!

Eggs are easy to prepare, inexpensive and a healthy option. Eggs are among the most nutritious foods, containing a little bit of almost every nutrient you need.** The versatility of this super-food is well known and it couldn’t be easier to prepare poached eggs with this Sistema Easy Eggs Microwavable Pot. (£3.69). Simply crack an egg, microwave for about a minute and enjoy.

Or whip up a deliciously light and fluffy omelette in minutes using the electric Salter EK2716 Omelette Maker. (Was £19.99 now £13.33). Featuring aluminium non-stick cooking plates, this impressive unit requires no cooking oil making for a brilliantly healthy meal.

Steer clear of the corner kebab shop and opt for healthier snacks instead with the Salter Healthy Hot Air Popcorn Maker (£16.49). This healthy fat-free popcorn maker is perfect for sharing a quick snack with friends when you’re catching up with a movie night.

Smoothies are quick and easy to prepare before lectures and packed full of nutrients to keep you going throughout the morning. Blitz your breakfast in the Breville Blend Active Blender (Was £29.99 now £19.99) and go! As an added advantage, the bottle fits most bike cup holders so you can enjoy your drinks on the move.

A top tip is to set up a group chat with your new flat or house mates to decide what each person should bring as you really don’t want to end up with five frying pans, three kettles and multiple cutlery sets.

Keep it Clean

One of the first challenges a new student faces is doing their laundry for the first time. It is a good idea to have a laundry strategy and don’t let it build up.

Do a wash whenever your laundry basket becomes full and don’t waste precious pennies on doing half loads. Save on space too with this Addis Grey Fold Flat Laundry Basket (Was £19.99 now £14.99).

Addis 38L Fold Flat…

Use common sense and separate whites and colours carefully. Read the washing instruction labels and make sure you understand the symbols. Select the correct washing machine setting and appropriate temperature. It’s important to pick the right setting, otherwise you could end up with a wardrobe full of crop tops and three-quarter length trousers. And watch out for fabrics that require delicate treatment!

There are a variety of detergents to choose from. Tablets and pods such as Ariel Original Pods (Was £4.99 now £2.99) are less messy than powder or liquid. Biological detergents have special enzymes to help break down stains and dirt. The Ariel Colour Style Washing Gel (Was £7.99 now £3.99) is good for washing filthy sports kit! Non-biological detergents are kinder to sensitive skin.

Or for the eco-warriors, why not do your bit for the environment and try the Ecoegg Laundry Egg (Was 9.99 now £7.49). Not only will the Ecoegg last for 70 washes, saving you money, it’s also safe to use on the most delicate fabrics and the mineral filled egg is kinder to the environment.

Drying laundry in student accommodation can be a bit of a headache. Hang clean clothes up immediately on an Addis Extendable 3 Tier Airer (Was £19.99 now £14.99). This will save you draping clothes over furniture and doors and it conveniently folds flat for easy storage when not in use. For extra drying space, a Vileda Express Radiator Airer (RRP £5.99 now £4.99) could come in very handy in the event of a wash day emergency.

Don’t let your personal hygiene regime slip no matter how much fun you are having. Keep your breath minty fresh with the Oral B Pro 650 Electric Toothbrush (Was £49.99 now £24.99). And remember, take care not to kiss any frogs!

Space Savers

Student rooms can easily become cluttered as they are often on the smaller size. Make the most of your space with some nifty storage solutions such as these Curver Storage Baskets (£2.99 – £8.99). A couple of these stylish, rattan-effect storage baskets will go a long way to help keep your room organised. Or how about some Really Useful Boxes (£3.99 -£46.99) to stash away all your bits and pieces.

Keep all your styling gadgets in one place with the Polder Styling Station (£15.99). It has large compartments ideal for storing hair dryers, straighteners and styling irons. The mesh base helps them cool down – great for keeping surfaces safe from heat damage and it features a handy hook for attaching to a towel rail.

Back to Basics

Students always have multiple gadgets to plug in and you’ll never be caught short with this clever PowerCube with Dual USB (Was £18.99 now £9.93). Not only will it turn one socket into four, but it also includes a dual USB port, so you can easily charge your laptop, phone or tablet without the need for an additional adaptor.

The sleek Toledo Wireless Charging LED Desk Lamp (Was £39.99 now £19.99) will add an element of ‘cool’ to any student room! It features a dimmable function making this light ideal for your bedside reading or as an occasional desk lamp. The wireless charging base is great to keep your phone fully charged and ready to go.

Store your dry goods such as tea, coffee, sugar, pasta and seal in freshness and flavour for longer with this stylish and handy Set of 3 Essentials Storage Canisters With Bamboo Lid (Was £19.99 now £9.99).

There are certain essential items you can never have enough of so be sure to stock up on Tea Towels (£4.99), Hangers (£1.99) and Push Pins (£1.99). And don’t forget to take a bin such as the Curver My Style White Paper Bin (Was £3.99 now £2.99).

A big part of starting university is making new friends. Be sociable and keep your door propped open with this Pug Door Stop (£8.00) and greet passers-by. You’ll feel like you’ve known them forever in no time at all.

Let’s Get the Party Started

Once you’re all settled in, it’s time to embrace your newfound freedom and get the party started with the Mixx Audio s3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker and Digital Clock (Was £39.99 now £19.99). The S3 is a versatile bedside wireless speaker, digital clock with alarm and phone charger as well as an ideal portable speaker. An all in one unique design!

But if you are planning on doing some work or a work out and need to block out the general melee for a while, plug in your earphones and escape with the Kitsound Over Ear Sport Headphone (Was £39.99 now £19.99). These headphones are sweat and light rain resistant and the detachable ear cups are easily removable when they need a wash.

NUKI LAUNCH THEIR NEW SMART HOME PRODUCT, NUKI OPENER AT LEADING CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW IFA.

Full List of Back to University Essentials

Starting back at university can be exciting … until you think about everything you need to buy and pack.

But don’t worry cause here is the definitive list of EVERYTHING you need to survive, from stationary to clothing, without overpacking.

  1. Your important documents
    I’m talking passport, birth certificate, any contracts to do with beginning the semester, prescriptions and anything else you may think is important. If you’re an international student, your visa information, travel insurance, and translation books.

If you think it’s important, bring it along to save you trouble down the line.

  1. Clothing
    Event though it isn’t essential to bring the wardrobe of a Hadid sister, it is in my opinion important to bring items that reflect your personality. When beginning University, or even just starting a new lot of classes, it can be daunting to present yourself to a new group of people. Find your confidence while breaking the ice a little and where something that shouts who you are to the world.
  2. Laptop/device
    This one’s pretty obvious. How else are you going to study in 2019?
  3. Kitchen Utensils
    If you’re familiar with lodging at Uni and using the communal kitchen, I don’t need to explain this much. But if you’re new, just trust me and steer clear of anything that is permanently stored in the shared kitchen.
  4. Bathroom products/toiletries and bag
    For those annoying trips to the showers, make it a better experience by bringing along all your favourite products to lather yourself up like you’re at home. Store everything in one easy bag you can grab and take with you, instead of awkwardly carrying bottles down the hallway and broadcasting to the world your new student status.
  5. Stationary
    If you are one of those old souls who still likes to write their notes with a good ol’ pen and paper, make sure you’re stocked up from Officeworks with everything you need and avoid those student convenience store hiked up prices.
  6. Bedroom decor
    To make your tiny space a little more homey, bring along your favourite funky patterned doona and sheet set. Buy some decorative pillows and candles, maybe even a print or two to reduce the ‘hotel’ feeling.
    At the end of the day, bring the things that will contribute joy, rather than stress, for this new and exciting part of your life. Whether you’re heading back or just starting, that feeling is the same.

Good luck for the semester ahead!

Freshers’ Finance – Student Life And Credit Scores

30 August 2019: This year will see record numbers of school leavers going to university, with figures from UCAS showing 275,520[i] had applied by July, whilst many more will go through the clearing process now that A-level results have been published.

It’s an exciting time but also a costly one, with most courses in the UK costing up to £9,250[ii] per year in fees and living costs averaging £807 per month[iii].

This is also the time that new undergraduates will start building their credit report. An individual’s credit history starts being compiled when they turn 18 and become eligible to vote. It’s a detailed picture of financial status, based on information supplied on a regular basis to credit reference agencies, like TransUnion. This comes from banks, credit card providers, utilities companies, leasing and hire companies, retailers, and other companies which provide credit.

It will help businesses make decisions on whether to offer things like a credit card, overdraft or mobile phone contract. Yet six out of 10 people (62%) don’t know how their credit report is used, according to TransUnion[iv]. And when it comes to student loans, nearly a third (32%) aren’t sure whether it would affect their credit score, whilst 18% wrongly believe a student loan would have a negative impact.

“A student loan is not recorded on your credit report,” says Kelli Fielding, MD of consumer markets for TransUnion UK. “It’s treated differently to other types of finance so it won’t have any impact on your credit score, but things like credit cards, overdrafts and personal loans – which many will be using for the first time as they head off to university – will all start contributing to the score. Managing money carefully is essential to build a good credit profile and will help students get onto the credit ladder.

“The information in the credit report is also used for identity checks to help reduce fraud. Recent research has shown that the under 21s are one of the top targets for fraudsters, with a rise in identity fraud of 26% last year in this age group[v]. If someone does try and use your identity in a scam, your credit report is one of the first places you’re likely to spot it, so we advise checking your report and score regularly with one of the many free online services.”

Top tips for students

Try not to keep high balances on your credit cards
Don’t make lots of credit applications over a short time period
Pay your bills on time – or early. Late payments are recorded on your report
Don’t exceed your agreed overdraft limit – this will have a negative impact on your score
Make sure you’re on the electoral register – as well as enabling you to vote, this will help your credit score but if you’re moving around during your time at university, it’s essential to update it.

To check their credit score and report regularly, and get guidance and offers to help with their finances, students can sign up to one of the free online services such as: Credit Karma, MoneySuperMarket, or TotallyMoney.

Reader Comment Submitted by Craig at Appliance Analysts [www.applianceanalysts.com] >>> If there’s one thing that changed my life on campus, it was a simple, portable laptop/phone charger. Just like this one on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Portable-RAVPower-20100mAh-External-Compatible/dp/B07P5XWRVY/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=laptop+charger+portable&qid=1567505646&s=gateway&smid=A32BDIEK75ANF5&sr=8-3

There’s nothing worse than being stuck without power. Whether it’s finishing a report, or settling down to a big study session. You’ve travelled to campus, you’ve got your snacks, your study playlist is ready and… low battery. Then you look around and yeah – there’s all the seats next to a socket are taken. Study session ruined. I got this portable laptop charger for Christmas, and it gave me SO much more freedom. There’s no more stress about devices ‘dying’. I can work anywhere; even outside. It’s honestly been such a game-changer, especially for my old laptop which appears to have lost half it’s battery life down a hole somewhere.

Back to University Essentials!

Congratulations, you got admission to the University of your choice, Pretty excited about this chapter of your fabulous book? Well, there is so much to prepare for now, including shopping, essential documents, stationery items, city guide, clothes, and many more.

Are you assuming everything in your room as an essential item to keep in your suitcase when you are moving abroad? Are you counting your days anxiously till you finally depart? We understand “what should I pack” is the toughest part of the process. But, Not anymore!

We are going to help you with this essential check-list. You want to make the most of your time studying abroad, and a carefully planned essentials list will help you do that.

Before moving out, could you give it a look once?

There are many factors you need to consider when you are packing for study abroad like Location of the University, Weather, length of your stay abroad, area of your accommodation – Are there general stores or not. You don’t need to load your suitcases with bottles of shampoos, and extra facial creams! Well, there is one more thing you need to keep in mind- How much luggage you are bringing, as each airline has different baggage requirements. (don’t get hit with overweight baggage fees)

1) STATIONARY ESSENTIALS-

Don’t remember what you studied while giving that exam? You don’t want to be quiet when you are asked by the new teacher! First impression is the last impression. Not always, though. But keep those notes with you, that might help you with assignments, and exams.
The main reason you are moving abroad is to study!

Pen, pencil, ruler, eraser etc.
Your important revision notes.
Books from the reading list.
Everything is digital nowadays, But It’d be good if you keep the bilingual dictionary as well.
City guide, map etc.
Information on public transport from the airport and around town
Don’t forget your diary; you can write your reminders, feelings, poems or doodles whatever you want!

2) CLOTHES AND ACCESSORIES TO PACK!

Sad that you cannot keep all your favourite cool printed T-shirts, Tired of deciding your formalwear out of so many you have already! You don’t have to pack loads of it to last the whole semester. The clothing you bring will totally depend on the climate there!

Your standard t-shirts, shirts, all go-to clothes.
Undergarments.
Socks
Belt
Comfortable travel clothes.
Light jackets, sweaters and hoodies.
Workout clothing.
Outfit for a Formal occasion.
Scarf/ hats/ caps
Umbrella
Heavy coat for chilly weather
Comfortable nightwear
Sport shoes
Classy footwears
FlipFlop
3) DON’T FORGET THESE IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS –
Make sure you pack these documents in your carry-on luggage, you can take cross-body bag to prevent theft.

Passport + Visa
Driving license, Student ID or any other identification.
Copies of your Passport, Visa and ID
Letter of acceptance from the University or any other document from the University.
Travel insurance details.

4) TOILETRIES

Well, my suggestion is not to keep anything extra! Don’t load your bag with all these items as you can buy them there as well! Don’t add unnecessary weight.
I repeat, DON’T KEEP TOO MANY OF IT.

Travel-size shampoo, conditioner
Small size body wash
Moisturising lotions
Toothbrush, toothpaste and floss
Feminine products
Sunscreen
Medications or prescriptions.

Pack toiletries enclosed in a bag, wrap them thoroughly.

5) ELECTRONIC ITEMS

Keep your laptop with a few downloaded movies.
Your phone, How are you going to stay connected to your family and friends? Well, why am I even reminding you this, you won’t forget to keep your phone obviously.
Your journey will be super boring without your earphones/ headphones. Keep them and listen to your updated playlist.
Your phone charger, Universal adapter and Portable Power bank.
Camera, to keep your memories with you forever!

Don’t forget to keep your credit or debit card and cash in the host currency.

6) PACK SOME OF YOUR FAVOURITE HOME COMFORTS!

College Essentials Checklist From Your BFF

Blain’s Farm & Fleet wants to help make sure your student has everything they need to settle into the dorms this semester with our list of college essentials.

Depending on your outlook, it may be hard to let your baby go off to college, or it may be a relief to finally have your house to yourself again. Either way, you’ll want to make sure you send your student off armed with the college essentials. This will ensure that they have everything they need to succeed at school.

Clothing

A challenge that faces a lot of college students is laundry. Whether they intend to do their own or bring a garbage bag full of dirty clothes home for mom to wash every weekend, they don’t want to run out of clothes between washings. This list is intended to give you ideas. Depending on where your student is going and the time of year, you may not need them all. Here are some college essentials in clothing:

A few weeks’ worth of underwear
Clothes for the current season and the one after, depending on what semester it is
A good raincoat and boots in case of rain
A heavier winter coat or fall jacket (with a hat and gloves or mittens) in case of a cold snap
Dorm-appropriate pajamas
At least one set of dress clothes (with shoes) if your student intends to join a sorority or fraternity
A bathing suit
A bathrobe and some flip flops for the dorm showers
A pair of running shoes for sports, working out, or just walking around campus
A pair of hiking boots or winter boots in case your student wants to explore nature in their new home
Personal Care

An obvious but easy-to-forget part of the college essentials is personal care items. Regardless of gender, here are some personal care essentials:

A toiletries bag for carrying personal care items to and from the dorm showers
Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash
Lotion
Facial soap
Toothbrush, dental floss, mouthwash and toothpaste
A hairbrush and comb
Hair product such as styling gel, mousse, or hairspray
Deodorant
A razor and shaving cream or an electric razor
Bedding

There are a lot of college essentials that can make your student feel like they’re at home in their new dorm room, but none moreso than the right bedding. Here are a few of the bedding must-haves:

A set of ear plugs in case your student’s room is facing a busy street or their roommate snores
At least two sets of bed sheets and pillow cases
A couple of blankets
A few pillows
Supplies

There are a lot of supplies your student will need that fall under the category of college essentials. A lot of them have to do with laundry, first aid, and cleaning. The key ones are:

A first aid kit for the paper cuts of studying and the scrapes of intramural sports.
A bottle of hand sanitizer
Some surface spray or disinfectant wipes
Air freshener
Laundry detergent and stain remover
A laundry bag or basket
Dish soap and a dishpan
Post-it notes
Pens, notebooks, binders, folders, highlighters, and Sharpies
A stapler
Vitamins
Small Appliances and Electronics

Dorm rooms are small, but there are a few appliances small enough to fit in the space that will be lifesavers for your student. In this day and age, the college essentials always include machines and electronics. Here are a few that will make your student’s life a lot easier:

A laptop (don’t forget the power cable) and cell phone
A cell phone charger
Batteries
A microwave oven and mini fridge – the bread and butter of dorm living
A crock pot and recipe book to make some hot meals like back home
An indoor grill for cooking up small portions of delicious food
A USB flash drive (maybe two since they tend to get lost easily)
An alarm clock to help your student get to class on time
A coffee maker to help them get started in the morning
A hand vacuum cleaner to clean up around the room
Dinnerware

Dinnerware is a set of college essentials that usually gets overlooked because, hey, there’s a cafeteria or dining hall right around the corner from their dorm. But trust me, sometimes you just need to stay in because of nasty weather or because you need to finish that research paper. Here are a few things that will help your student out:

A set of washable, microwavable dishes (A mug, glass, bowl, plate, spoon, knife, and fork) that they can use to make their own food
Disposable plates and utensils if there’s nowhere for them to wash their own dishes
It’s also important to remind your student to bring their ID, driver’s license, and credit or debit cards. If they are going to travel for spring break, they’ll also need their passport. Check out this printer-friendly PDF version of our college essentials checklist that you can take shopping with you.

Just think ahead, guide them to the things they’ll need, and talk to them about everything they might face. Their future is bright, and it’s time to let them shine.

Perlego ‘The Spotify for university textbooks’


Perlego is a leading digital streaming service and app for educational eBooks, aiming to help students cut down on the huge outgoings they accumulate throughout their university career.

The price of textbooks is something that burdens every student, regardless of location or course. But textbook prices have grown by approximately 1041% since 1977, and the typical student can expect to budget between £450 and £1070 for books and equipment alone per year. Many students who simply cannot afford this are then left to either fight over the copies in a library, make do without, or find alternatives illegally- inevitably affecting grades and quality of study.

Uni students are the Netflix and Spotify generation, and require resources at the touch of a button. Enter, Perlego. The online library was founded in order to make education accessible to all, and for academic titles to be as easy to access as your favourite streaming service. The app provides its users with access to over 250,000 specialised eBooks from over 2,300 publishers including Bloomsbury, Sage, Princeton University Press and Simon & Schuster for just £15 a month– a fraction of the cost of a single print book.

Be savvy, be cool, be exciting, be different, beadventurous, be creative, be you.

At Hamelin, we encourage and applaud students who are anyand all of the above, and more. We tookthis one step further and designed especially for these students, a beautiful, innovative, brand new notebook, that isworthy of their ideas, their creativity, and their essence. Our notebooks,which just launched in North America. a few months ago, stand out among the crowd,and they aren’t like other notebooks out there.

They bridge the analog and digital worlds, as they come witha free app, SCRIBZEE ®, that allows notetakers to scan, save, organize, share andaccess their notes, all from the cloud. Theyfeature iridescent hardcovers in seven colors, smooth, bright OPTIK ®paper,that does not bleed through, (so you can write on both sides!), extra wide pocketfolders and organization sticker tabs.

We’ve been taking our notebooks on tour to meet students this spring, and the reactions we’ve been receiving have been overwhelminglyenthusiastic.
