5. Dry Erase Calendar

If you, like me, love planning out your schedule, you will definitely need a dry erase calendar board.

These boards are perfect for dorm rooms because you can place them on your desk or even hang them on your wall like this dry-erase board to make sure you are getting all your things done for the month.

No need to buy another calendar because as soon as the month is over, you can start fresh by using the dry-erase feature.

Also, you can even write little notes to yourself or things on your to-do list to make sure you are really on track.

6. Mattress Topper

One of the most essential items for living in a dorm is a mattress topper. Believe me, this is an absolute must because dorm beds can be very uncomfortable.

To make sure you are getting enough of a good night’s sleep and the rest that you need, you should purchase this memory foam mattress topper.

This mattress topper can make any bed feel like you’re at a 5-star hotel. You can even choose to get it in two inches or three depending on how much cushion you want for your mattress.

7. Wall Mirror

Your dorm will also most likely not have a mirror at all or may have a mirror that’s too small. So, you should definitely plan ahead and purchase a wall mirror for yourself.

This mirror is perfect for any dorm because it can be used as either a wall or door mirror.

Some dorms have different rules about hanging mirrors on walls or doors, but even if you can’t hang it on your wall or door, you can place it in your room, so that you can check your outfit before you leave.

8. Mini Fridge

If you want to have cold beverages or even if you love snacking and want to store some food in your dorm room, you will need a mini fridge.

This one is perfect because it is not too big, so it won’t take up a ton of space. Also, it comes in this adorable pink color, which can also add some color to your room!
