High school students are starting to hear back from colleges and universities with acceptance letters. A lot of the hard work of senior year is wrapping up soon, and teens will begin to turn their attention to graduation and summer vacation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Stationery and supplies for college includes memo squares and pencil boxes.\" class=\"wp-image-2586\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3344.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are a college student excitedly planning ahead, or a proud parent or grandparent of a college-bound student, here is a checklist for stationery items and school supplies your student may need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Stationery for college includes thank you notes and paperclips and binder clips\" class=\"wp-image-2585\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/IMG_3343.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pencils, pens and erasers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paper notebooks or a digital tablet for classroom note taking. My son uses the Notes app on his iPad and writes with a stylus. My daughter uses traditional paper notebooks and colored pens. Some students like to type on a laptop. Find the system that works for you. If you use a computer or tablet, getting a portable battery to charge while on the go could be a really great idea.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/Journals\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Journals<\/a> for dreaming and planning your personal or social life. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/Best-Selling-Personalized-Notes\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Note cards<\/a> to write thank you notes to family and friends who send you gifts and care packages. Never shirk this important duty&#8211; it can be the difference between receiving gifts and not receiving them. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A cup, pencil case, or drawer tray for holding writing implements on top of your desk, inside the drawer, or inside your backpack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlighter pens for marking up reading materials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.embossedgraphics.com\/All-Memos\/1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Memo squares<\/a> or a list notepad to write yourself reminders and shopping lists&#8230;or use alerts on your phone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3-ring binder (optional) to corral classroom handouts, notes and other materials. Some classrooms are completely digital; others are a mix.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A sturdy, waterproof book bag or back pack. You&#8217;ll have fewer books to lug around in college, as you will likely be taking 1-5 classes at a time, compared to 7-8 classes in high school. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lanyard for your school ID and a little cash.
