What to Bring | Housing and Residential Life | Campus Life Manhattan

You know better than anyone else what "stuff" you'll need in your room to make the most of your residential experience. After settling in, you'll probably find that there are additional items you'll want. There are plenty of shopping facilities nearby where you'll be able to purchase them. But most students find that certain items are helpful — if not essential. We suggest you discuss with your roommate(s) before you arrive so you don't duplicate those things you could share.
