Here's our favorite picks from Target's massive collection of affordable college dorm room bedding, decor and more.
Whether it is your first time living in the dorms or your fourth year staying on campus, creating a comfortable dorm room that matches your style can make all the difference this fall. Coming back after a long day of classes to relax on a cozy bed, or opening a mini fridge full of your go-to caffeine for a late-night study session, are little luxuries that are often overlooked.
Finding all the right pieces for your dorm room can sometimes feel like summer homework, but Target is making finding college essentials easier. The retailer's College Dorm Room Essentials section provides deals on college must-haves, dorm room inspiration, plus a round-up of all the items you'll need for the upcoming school year.
From small appliances to bedding and wall decorations, every dorm room needs the essentials to feel like home and Target is here to help you out. Twin XL sheet sets, savvy storage and even desk organizers make college life simpler, and Target has several options to match a variety of tastes and styles. The retailer even has a special section for college deals for those on a budget. We are especially loving the Room Essentials brands with twin bedding under $10 and shower caddies for just $3 — because college is expensive enough without the dorm-room extras.
Shopping for a college dorm room can be challenging for students and parents alike. Ahead, cross items off your back-to-school checklist with these dorm-room essentials available on Target right now.
