3 Gifts That a University Fresher Will Actually Love

Do you know a soon-to-be fresher? It’s one of the most exciting experiences, but if you’ve been a fresher yourself – you’ll know how daunting it can be. So, wouldn’t it be nice to send them on their way with a gift they’ll actually love? Read on to find out.

Something for Studying

An Ergonomic Study Lamp

A well-lit workspace can significantly enhance productivity. We say can because it’s still up to the fresher to start studying. They can also reduce eye strain during late-night study sessions. And we promise, there will be some late-night study sessions. An ergonomic study lamp with adjustable brightness and color temperature is a great gift, in our opinion.

A Quality Planner

University life is a juggle. They’ll be struggling between classes, assignments, social activities, and more. If you have been to university, you’ll remember how chaotic it can feel. A durable, well-organized planner is essential. Will they use it? Maybe not. But if they are a planner user type of person, this is a great idea. You can get ones on Amazon that combine it with positive affirmations.

An Organized Note

Taking System: Taking effective notes is a key skill for success in university. Consider gifting them a quality notebook or a digital note-taking device like a tablet with a stylus. You could also include accessories like colorful pens or highlighters to help them stay organized and engaged during lectures and study sessions.

Something for Memories

A Customizable Photo Book

This is an old-school classic that we love. If you can combine this gift with a portable camera, it’s the perfect idea for keeping memories. There’s no better way to freeze time than through photographs. One of the best photo book maker ideas is to use social media pictures if they don’t want to use a camera. Most people have Facebook and Instagram full of pictures.

A Memory Jar

A memory jar is a different take on making those special memories last forever. Freshers can fill it with notes, ticket stubs, small trinkets, and other memorabilia that tell the story of their university journey. It’s a simple yet great way to cherish college or university life.

A Polaroid Camera

Instant cameras are making a comeback for a reason – they provide a tangible, instant memory that can be cherished for years to come. A Polaroid camera allows freshers to capture spontaneous moments with friends and create a physical collection of memories to look back on fondly. Plus, the vintage aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia to their college experience.

Something for Fun

Board Games or Card Games

Board games might sound boring, but if you’ve ever had a boozy board game or card night, you’ll know how fun they can be. And we promise, there will be tons of alcohol for freshers. We’re not talking about Monopoly (no hate for Monopoly) – we’re thinking of games like Cards Against Humanity or board games that can be turned into drinking games. Of course, it doesn’t all have to be about drinking. Not everyone’s into that – Monopoly is fine.

A Portable Speaker

Music is a universal language. Everyone loves music, and we guarantee they’ll be listening to music in their dorm room. You can get some decent speakers on Amazon for under $100. If you want our advice, go for the good brands. Spend some money on high-quality speakers that’ll last throughout the college years. The Bose Soundlink is only $99, and the quality is incredible. We promise this gift will be a continuous mood booster. And if it’s a portable one like the Bose, they can take it everywhere.

Entertainment for Social Gatherings

Consider gifting fun items that can enhance social gatherings and hangouts with friends. Board games or card games like Cards Against Humanity, Exploding Kittens, or Codenames can provide hours of entertainment and laughter during dorm room gatherings or parties. So, what gift do you think you’ll get your fresher? Out of all the milestones in their life, this is one of the most significant. Well, to them, at least. They need all the helping hands they can get to ensure they get off to the best start. And if you get the present right, it could be the best thing they have throughout their years at college.
