You’re off to Uni, congratulations! The best three years of your life are about to start. The hardest thing about first year is deciding what to take with you and what to leave at home. You’ve spent the last 18 years collecting items, but is the pair of shoes you bought for your first school disco really necessary? Unless you’re moving from the busy city life to the country side, there will still be shops where you’re going, so it’s easy enough to buy things when you get there. If you are moving into a student accommodation there is a 100% chance that you will end up with six of everything if not more. There are some things that are more important to take than others. Here’s your ultimate list of things to take to Uni that hopefully will help you out!
