13 Gifts College Students Want This Year
Her Campus

The most wonderful time of the year is quickly approaching us. Thanksgiving and Black Friday has already passed so just think Christmas is next! It's the time of the year where everyone loves to give and no matter who you are we all like to receive.

For college students this means no homework, sleeping in late and taking as many naps as we want, eating all of our favorite Christmas food, cuddling up by the fire in our fuzzy socks and warm blankets and most of all getting those presents we've been waiting for!

So if you're buying for a college student and just don't know what to get here are 13 Christmas gifts all college students would love to receive this Christmas.

1. Money

I can promise you no matter the college student they will love to get money. Whether it goes toward food, shopping, a movie night or paying bills they will be thankful for it.

2. Gift Cards

If you think money isn't enough find out their favorite places to go and get them gift cards. You can't go wrong with food, gas or shopping gift cards.

3. Food

College students are at that point in the semester where their over can food and frozen dinners. Groceries or even food gift cards would be appreciated.

4. Warm clothes

Warm winter clothes is a must when you're walking from one building to the other in the snow.

5. Shoes

All college students do a ton of walking everyday, so cute and comfortable shoes is a nice touch to the Christmas list.

6. Apartment stuff

Nothing is as exciting as having your own place and being able to decorate it however you want. Being on a college budget not many students have the money to my all the decor they want. So any rugs, pictures, pillows or furniture would be an awesome way to go.

7. A pet

Even though college students are busy a pet is still a great companion. I mean pets can help with depression and improve students day to day activities.

8. Comfy blankets

We all love those cozy blankets to cuddle up with on the days we have nothing at all to do.

9. Keurig w/ coffee

Every college student needs some type of pick me up for those 8am classes. And what better way than a quick and mess free cup of coffee from their Keurig.

10. Concert tickets

There are always concerts, shows, games or even plays that every college student wants to go to. So a ticket to their favorite game or artist is just the way to go.

11. Cookbooks

When you live on you're own you don't have those meal plans for school dinners. So a nice cookbook or two for easy dinners is a great thoughtful gift.

12. Candle/wax warmers w/ the wax

Candles are nice but not always allowed in dorms or a a cute wax warmer with the perfect scents is a gift any college student would be glad to have.

13. Pay for school loans

If all else fails money, money, money and more money to pay off those students loans. This gift is probably the one gift every college student with a loan out will be jumping up and down about.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
