Technology Must Haves!
I have used and still use all of the technology products throughout my college career. I have used these products for Community and University Level Course Work.
An iPad is a pretty spendy purchase when you are a struggling college student, believe me, I get it. But If you do get an Ipad, it will save you money on pens, pencils, notebooks, paper, highlighters, post etc. Not only that, but with good notes, it ...
Apple iPad: Target: Pro, Mini, Air
Noise-canceling headphones are a must-have as a college student whether it's wearing them to class, the gym while studying, etc. I like the Apple Air Pod Pros because they are noise canceling and they have transparency mode(which you can turn on and ...
AirPods Pro in Apple AirPods(22)
The reason that I like my Mac Book is because I have an iPhone and an iPad so it makes sharing documents across technology a lot easier. Not only that but because of the “iCloud” I can snap a quick picture of my homework and turn it in on my computer...
Macbook: Apple Computers
I always have two portable chargers on me no matter what, especially on days that I have to go to work and multiple classes. Sometimes your computer, iPad, phone airpods, etc. dies in the middle of class and there is no outlets to plug your cord into...
Portable Charger
I promise you will always need a printer, I am not saying you HAVE to buy one. But if you are living off-campus I recommend going in on a printer with your roommates or getting on yourself because you will always need to print something and may not a...

Planning/ Staying on top of School
All the products I use that make staying on top of college, work (3 jobs), horses, and just life a lot easier. I like to plan and jot down details on grades, my progress, bible verses, etc so I need a calendar, planner, and notebook that can fit all ...
It is extremely important to stay on top of your school work by writing the dates that your assignments are due down on a calendar or in a planner! Time Management is extremely important in College, especially if you also juggle work and or a sport. ...

I like the Calendars from Amazon because they have a wider assertion than most “in-store” places. I bought a white-board calendar that is reusable and right on budget! Keep up this semester my friends!
Calendars
Use the reminders app or get an app that reminds you and put all of your assignment, test, quiz, discussion board etc due dates in after your professor posts the syllabus to stay on top of school. This is something that I learned way to late in colle...
Use Reminders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
I just love Amazon to be honest. They always have exactly what I'm looking for, and for a decent price that still is cute! They have such a wide assortment and quick shipping when you are in a jam!
Notebooks for College Students, Must Haves!
Things you don't think you need but you do.
Things I never thought I would need in College that you 100% do.
Honestly, I never would have thought that I would need to have a mini stapler on hand, until, one of my Professors gave me three handouts (that were not stapled together) and then told me she would not accept them unless they were stapled together (I...
Mini Staplers for College Students! Absolute must-have!
I recommend getting a blanket for your car, especially if you have long breaks in between classes and are trying to save money on gas!
Target Blankets: SO soft!
You most definitely need a water bottle of some sort to take with you to class and while out and about. I prefer my stanley to other products because it keeps the ice in my cup cold for days and they have a variety of cute colors!

Getting a small or large fan whether you are staying at home for college or moving away is essential. I know it's not something you are thinking about now but you will for sure need it.
Small and Medium sixed Fans for Room or Dorm room
After your Professors post their syllabus they normally put what kind of scantrons they use for all of their tests including the final. I recommend getting ALL of your scantrons for ALL of your classes and get extras. I can not tell you how many time...

I thought that once I got to college I would never need a pencil again. It is always useful to have a pencil on you and pencils are normally required for official tests and finals. Plus, you make a lot more mistakes on these assignments than you thin...

Products I use for College and what I use them for
These are all the products that make handling college life easier and how I use them!
A binder is perfect to keep all of your papers and handouts organized. I like to get mine from Walmart because they are relatively the cheapest and they almost never charge me a pick up and park or pick up in store orders!
Walmart/ Amazon: Binders in Binders & Accessories(1000+)
Getting a pencil pouch to keep all your pens/pencils/highlighters/erasers etc, organized! Getting one of these has saved me money in the long run because I keep track of all my things and dont have to buy more!
Pencil Pouch Zipper Bags
Using a backpack for my classes that I have a lot of books or notebooks for is a lot better than trying to carry them all in myself. It helps keep all of my stuff in one place and gives me the ability to be able to study on the go!
All Backpacks: Shop by Size, Color, and Function
For my short lecture classes, I like to just take a small purse with my computer and iPad in it so that way I do not have to bring as much stuff into class with me and lug it across campus!
Handbags That Fit Laptop
Getting one of these for college and making a folder for each class. Then you keep all your paper assignments, tests, quizzes, etc, organized and neat. I also recommend keeping important stuff until you graduate because I have used notes I learned fr...
