Living in an apartment & renting is a great way to start your life on your own away from your parents. 

But it doesn’t come without cons. 

Renting normally means you can’t paint, put any holes in the walls – really not changing a single thing. Not to mention apartments usually have little to no storage space.

Here in Canada, college is a pretty different experience compared to the States. People aren’t as big into Greek life, and college and university are actually different things here lol. 

So technically I am going to university, and I am also not staying in a dorm, so this list will not be regarding any sort of dorm life. 

We’re bringing it down to the nitty gritty basics of school work and college life, and all the items that I find super necessary in attending college.
