College students often experience a whirlwind of emotions as they start their new journey. Daily comfort items tend to be overlooked in favor of more visible necessities like clothes and school supplies. As a result, issues with sleep and comfort may arise after the initial move-in excitement has passed.
Families typically prioritize items that can be seen or used in class, leaving essential comfort items to be addressed later. This can lead to regrets about not purchasing certain items sooner.
