My dd went from Southern California to upstate NY. We paid extra for a large single. Most of her gear was for winter stuff. winter coats, boots, blankets, etc.
Your son needs to wait on his shipping because he will probably have a roommate or two. Each roommate will say what each will bring. The rooms are tiny in most dorms. Each student usually gets a desk, chair, bed (bunk), and sometimes a dresser or a shared closet. That was all three of my kids’ dorm descriptions at 3 very different colleges.

His space will be the top of his desk-which isn’t that big. That’s where his equipment will go. Is he sure he’s going to bring all of that stuff? He can’t impose on his roommates space.
