[quote=Anonymous]A thermometer, so when they’re sick and phone you, they can tell you if their temp is normal or high. For the international student, research a local bank and see if you need any special info/documentation to set up an account. Also check out phone plans, and whether it is better to get a local SIM card. For US students, research which ATMs the college has on site and see about opening an account with that bank, so the student doesn’t have to pay $$$ to withdraw cash. Consider buying bulky items online and picking them up upon arrival at a local Walmart/Target - especially larger things like fans, pillows, mini fridge, comforters, lamps etc. For regular prescriptions, consider using national chains (eg CVS, Target, Walmart). It makes it easier to pick up refills, because you can go to any branch, whether the student is at home or on campus - the pharmacy just looks up the student’s account on their computer.[/quote]
