Going off to college is an exciting time, but being ready for it takes a lot of preparation. There are a lot of supplies that the college student is going to need, and finding all of those can be a challenge. One of the most daunting purchases can be finding the perfect bedding for a dorm room. The truth is that a dorm room is a very small space that requires a lot of efficiency and a unique style to make it feel like home. However, it is not the size of the dorm room that makes it difficult to outfit. Instead, it is the size of the bed that can make finding bedding a challenge.
Nearly every dorm room features twin size beds, but they are extra long twin beds. Because of the longer length of the mattress, you will have to purchase sheets that fit an extra long bed. When shopping for bedding for a dorm room, the specific items you will need are sheets, comforter, a mattress pad, and an optional feather bed. Each of these items must be twin XL size. You will notice that these items can be labeled differently, depending on where you are shopping. You will see this bedding labeled as Twin Extra Long, Extra Long Twin, Twin XL, or XL Twin. Any of these labels indicate the bedding that is needed for a dorm room bed.

What does extra long really mean? That extra long label means that your sheets have an additional five inches in length to accommodate the size of the mattress. Additionally the sheets may have less depth to them as many dorm room mattresses are thinner than traditional mattresses.
When you choose dorm room bedding, there are several factors to consider. First, you want sheets that will be easy to launder. Many college students are doing their own laundry for the first time in their lives so you want to make sure that their sheets are easy to wash. Another must see are the multiple types Blue Comforters.
You should also consider the climate of the university or college. The climate of the local area might dictate you bedding choices. For example, if you are attending the University of Alaska, you will need different sheets and comforters than you would if you were heading to Arizona State University. It might be necessary to buy several different types of sheets sets because of the changing season. In the winter months you might want a set of flannel sheets to keep you cozy and a set of cool cotton sheets for the spring months.
Style of course is important to most college age students, and you should have fun in your selection. While you may want to keep your roommates style choices in mind you can also use your bedding as a method of expressing yourself. However, try to choose something that will stay with your for your time in the dorms. This can be anywhere from one to four years. Generally after your time in the dorms you will not have a need for extra long bedding so you only want to buy it once. Steer clear of very timely patterns and styles. Instead, choose something that is both fun and timeless.
