<p>What do I need when I go to college? For academics, dorm, life in general. I will be living alone and would like some guidance. I will be living in New York City. Thank you!</p>
<p>You’re not going to college this year, you’re a senior in hs. And you have a 3.5 GPA so I wouldn’t be so set on NYU if I were you.</p>
<p>Christiana, there are several shopping threads on the forum if you search for them. I am not really sure what you mean by academics. I guess you need to bring hard work and an open mind.</p>
