Money
Bring with you enough money to cover the expenses of your first month, which is likely to be one of the most expensive periods of your stay. Before the term begins you will pay for local transportation, possibly several nights of lodging off campus, and meals. Once on campus, your expenses will include:
Tuition and fees for the first term
Orientation charges (at some institutions)
Books and supplies
Housing deposits and rent
Health-insurance premiums
Clothing appropriate for the climate
Household items
Do not carry a large sum of cash. Travellers checks are a safer way to carry money.
