![]() Printers provided around campus will have paper if you need to print something. Paper – I would not buy lots of paper, whether printer or binder, right up front.I studied in my room a lot in high school, but always went elsewhere during my Freshman year. If you are unsure how much you’ll use it, or prefer to study outside of your room (check out these green study spaces across campus), hold off on the desk lamp at first. A desk lamp – Some people are big dorm-studiers, so having a desk lamp (with LED lights) is practical.But, you don’t need to buy new pens, pencils, highlighters, markers… just bring what you already have at home! And you probably won’t need a box full of them. Writing implements – You will need something to write with.There are places on campus to rent/buy a computer for a discounted price, like the U-M Tech Shop. ![]() A laptop – Most classes have online homework or have in-class remote activities.Bed risers – These are not allowed in the dorms.Throw pillows – These are often used more for décor than for function, and they generally just end up gathering dust on the floor.Most people I’ve spoken to didn’t need floor cushions or an additional backrest, but it’s up to you. ![]() A backrest or floor cushions – You can use your sleeping pillows as a backrest against the wall.Some people prefer a pad, but U-M provided mattresses are not too thin or uncomfortable, so I’d hold off at first. ![]()
