[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clothing. I can't believe that no one has mentioned this. People moan about $60 mini fridge fees, but the truth is that depending upon the school, gender of the child, and their size, it can be thousands to look the part. Boys are much cheaper than girls in this regard. I mention size, because if your daughter is either 00 or size 12 the J. Crew sale rack is their oyster and you can get a lot of bang for your buck. I came from a small town, and when I arrived at Columbia the scene was overwhelming. It is difficult socially if you don't have the right clothing. Depending on the school and location, the right clothing can be much more than the cost of airfare. Something to think about.[/quote] I'm fairly confident that I never bought a single item of clothing in college. I "inherited" a lot from friends.[/quote]
