Student Recommended Items:

These items have been recommended by former students. Many of the items listed are very expensive on the Island; therefore, if you are traveling to Grenada and you have the space, it is recommended that you bring these items with you.

• Hangers and a laundry bag (Many students use a duffel bag as both luggage and a laundry bag.). Each dorm complex has its own laundry facilities.
