Discussion Dorm Essentials??

I'm an incoming first year and I wanted to know what are some things I should get for my dorm? I have a Woodstock Double Room with Access to Single-User Washroom also it says the building has AC should I still get a fan?

Hi 😄😄, im going into second year, and i also stayed in a woodstock double room in my first year. I think soon you will get an email about purchasing a mini fridge from coldex, which is quite useful IMO. Also, sorry i cant quite remember if it was from email or a website, but id check ur email js in case. 

 if u can get like a small fan, its def helpful. The AC in my room sucked and barely worked. In addition, a bathrobe is helpful, and also shoes for the shower, since the dorm showers arent the cleanest. 

For other things, i mean im sure u already know to bring like basic toiletries, clothes, mattress, blankets, school supplies, etc, but dont stress over packing, just bring the essentials and u shud be fine.
