Q: I'm going to be an incoming freshman and I leave for college in a week. That being said, figuring out what to bring (clothes, shoes, etc) and how much to bring has been pretty challenging. I LOVE clothes, mixing and matching, etc, so I cannot bear to just bring a few things. Any suggestions?
A: When I first went to college, I did not pack my entire wardrobe because I wanted to save myself the trouble of packing lots of stuff. Boy did I regret it! Now I have my entire wardrobe with me at college and wish I had done it the first time. If you are planning to rush sororities, you will definitely need your dressy clothes with you at college. It also depends how far away your college is from home though. My college is 4 hours away and I have no car, so I need to have everything with me, winter stuff included.
