1. Ramen
Hands down, the most essential item on this list! As you're reading this article, you most likely have a pack of it somewhere in your room. It might not be exactly healthy, but it certainly is cheap and that's good enough for me.

2. Kraft Easy Mac
This one goes hand and hand with ramen in terms of being a classic dorm room staple. Not only is it pretty great, but it makes a fast meal if you don't have enough time to head over to the cafeteria.
3. Popcorn
The only snack to ever have for movie nights with your friends. Trust me, you'll have a lot of movie nights throughout the year.
4. Cereal
Everyone knows that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. However, many students don't have enough meal swipes to go to the cafeteria in the morning. So grab a bowl, buy some milk, and you have yourself a quick and easy breakfast before class.
5. Pop-Tarts
Most students won't have microwaves in their dorm room, but eating Pop-Tarts cold works just as well. Even better, Pop-Tarts are the perfect grab and go snack.
6. Coffee
Yes, I know coffee is not a type of food, but you cannot deny that it is essential to college life. Just don't forget your Keurig.
7. Goldfish
"The snack that smiles back" is a classic snack to keep in your room. Almost everyone likes them, so you can never go wrong with choosing to buy them.
8. Oreos
Double Stuffed, Pumpkin Spice, Caramel Apple, Golden Oreos, and many more flavors. The king of all snacks, Oreos cannot be overlooked.
9. Assorted Candy
Milky Way, Snickers, Kit Kat, Swedish Fish, Sour Patch Kids, and hundreds of other options. Personally, candy is the best snack to have before you go to bed or after you did really well on test. Go ahead and treat yo' self!
10. Fruit Snacks
Last, but not least, fruit snacks! I don't think I've ever met someone who doesn't like them. So make it a priority to have them in your room.
