When the summer holidays finally draw to a close, students all over the country will be saying their goodbyes and getting their ducks in a row ahead of their next big adventure: heading to

university. Moving away from home and into student halls or rented accommodation for the first time is a huge milestone in itself. Add getting organised and packing for your new digs into

the mix, and the move can seem like a daunting task. When it comes to writing up a list of what to take, it’s not always clear what’s essential and what can probably stay behind. To make

life easier, we’ve found the products that will make your new lodgings feel like a home. While few people look back on their university days as the most comfortable of times, it is still

home to the best, the worst and often the messiest memories. So, from homeware and kitchen appliances to bedding and stationery, we’ve got all bases covered. Whether you are moving into

halls for the first time or going back to university after a comfortable summer at your parents’ home, these are the essentials for your new digs. UNIVERSITY CHECKLIST: WHAT ARE THE KEY

ESSENTIALS TO PACK FOR UNIVERSITY? Firstly, you should check with your university halls, to see what is included in your student accommodation. Will there be a bin in your bathroom? Are you

provided with an ironing board? Once you know this, it’s then best to divide up the essentials by room. Check out our university 2024 checklist below. KITCHEN ESSENTIALS BEDROOM ESSENTIALS
