University housing staff offers a checklist of the items you shouldn't forget when packing for college
The calendar seems to be racing through summer to the start of back- to-school and fall rituals including move-in days, when campuses at Rutgers will become bustling centers of activity packed with students once again.
In preparation for the rite of passage that is living in on-campus housing, check out the list below of what to pack for your home away from home from Student Affairs at Rutgers University-New Brunswick.
"We're eagerly looking forward to our new and returning Scarlet Knights rejoining our campus community this fall semester,'' said Salvador B. Mena, senior vice chancellor for the student experience. "Our students bring such vibrancy and energy to our campus, and we are committed to providing them with a meaningful college experience.''
Before you start shopping one word of advice: check with your roommate to decide who will bring shared items like a rug or television.
Move-in tips are also available online from Rutgers-Newark, Rutgers-Camden and Rutgers-New Brunswick's FAQ page
