This 10 pack set of towels is the perfect starter set for your freshman year.
2. Bath Towel Set
Another option to get you started from Amazon that available in a variety of sets and sizes.
3. Oversized Bath Sheet
Love this towel! It is great because it is oversized and perfect for when you want a little extra coverage.
One is ideal but two would be nice!
4. Mesh Shower Caddy Tote
A shower tote is perfect for carrying all your bathroom toiletries from your room especially if you are not storing them in the bathroom.
Every college student needs one of these in their life.
5. Oval Laundry Hamper
Perfect hamper if you have to walk a distance to get to the laundry room.
This hamper is sturdy and sure to last.
6. Large Laundry Basket
Super cute striped navy and white hamper that will have you doing the laundry in style.
I also LOVE this grey and white one from Amazon as well!
7. Flex Shower Caddy
A shower caddy is great to keep your smaller shower items organized.
8. Birkenstock Essentials
These are super cute and the waterproof version of the classic Birks.
9. Casual Flip Flop Sandals
The go-to sandals every college chic probably owns.
Either sandal option above will be useful especially if you are sharing a bathroom with multiple girls.

10. Garbage Container Bin
You will want a garbage can with the lid for sure. Girls can be a bit messy in the bathroom but at least the trash will be concealed.
11. Women’s Cozy Robe
This robe is perfect to throw on after a shower. It’s simple and comfy.
12. Get Naked Bath Mat
Love this verbiage bathmat from Urban Outfitters. A great way for your college students to add personality to their dorm bathroom.
13. Chenille Bathroom Rug
Super plush and comfy bathmat that will keep your feet warm in the bathroom.
14. Waterproof Portable Bluetooth
This waterproof speaker is perfect for those days when you have a little extra time for a longer shower.
A must-have for every college freshman according to my child.
15. Take It Off Shower Curtain
Another cute saying that will bring out your personality in the bathroom.
16. Curtain Seafoam Green
This is the exact one my daughter and her roommates have in their bathroom. Love the ombre pattern and pop of color.
17. Tension Shower Curtain Rod
Another must-have dorm bathroom essential that is needed in the bathroom. Most colleges do not provide one so be sure to add it to your list.
18. Gel-Lock Soap Dish
Great to keep the soap off the floor in the bathroom. Super convenient too.
19. Shower Curtain Hook
Because you can’t hang the curtain without the hooks.
Hope this list is helpful in your college journey. Remember plan, plan and plan some more.
Breathe and just enjoy the experience because trust me four years will go extremely fast!
Have an amazing night full of Unicorns & Rainbows!
