Your results are in and good news you are finally off to University, moving out and getting ready to make hilarious memories, starting with Freshers Week.
This week promises to be the most expensive and fun week of University but before you dive head first into 10 pints of beer, make sure you follow this handy guide for what to take in order to survive Freshers Week. You can thank us later.
• Pack of Cards
It is weird how much fun can be made when drink and card games are combined. You will never learn so many card games in one week again.
• A Freshers Ball outfit.
At university you will enjoy plenty of balls so make sure you celebrate each one in style. Retailers like MyTuxedo.co.uk and MyDresses.co.uk offer formal wear for the same price as hiring and have student discount available as well so buy now to avoid wasting money later. You won’t regret it you look at your bank balance after Freshers week.
• Any Fancy Dress
You can bet there will be a couple of fancy dress nights. No one knows what they are till they arrive. It’s a mystery but the options are endless. Take any fancy dress you may already own. You don’t want to be annoyed that your Where’s Wally outfit is still sitting at home.
• Pain Killers
Drank too much the night before? These might just make the morning after a little easier to handle. A word of warning, Freshers Flu is not for the faint hearted so these are a must have for any student.
• Earplugs
There will always be someone louder and more wide awake thank you. Get ear plugs now to avoid this issue.
• NUS student card
This will be a life saver when after a week of hard partying, you suddenly realise your student loan has been spent on Jager Bombs. Get discounts at a number of restaurants, bars and shops including Asos, Burton and MyTuxedo.co.uk.
• A camera
University is meant to be the best years of your life so make sure you are able to capture the many memories that will be made during Freshers week.
