Gift Ideas For Students Away At College

By Elba Fenwick


While going away can be a lot of fun and a chance to gain some independence, college students need a little something to lift their spirits and cure any bouts of homesickness. If the student in your life needs a little TLC, here are a few gift suggestions they are sure to enjoy.

If there is one common complaint universal to all those living on a college campus, it would be that the food is not exactly gourmet cuisine. Treating your favorite student to something delicious will definitely be highly welcome, and a great gift to consider is gourmet chocolate pizza from The Chocolate Pizza Company. The pizza crust is not cocoa-dusted pizza dough, but a mix of real, gourmet milk chocolate or dark chocolate mixed with rich English toffee. From there, pizza toppings such as nuts, marshmallows or M&Ms are added, and then the whole confection receives a quick splash of white chocolate before being cleverly packaged in a genuine pizza box.

The owners of the Chocolate Pizza Company also have created a special gift designed just for collegians. This package, the "College Survival Kit," contains everything need to lift the spirit of your favorite college student. In addition to a slice of milk chocolate pizza and a miniature dark chocolate pizza, the box also contains peanut butter wings and several other goods. The wings are actually gourmet, locally made potato chips blended with the finest creamy peanut butter. Finally the mix is dipped in either dark or milk chocolate.

Small appliances, such as a compact microwave, an electric kettle or a coffee maker, make great gifts for the dorm room. Send a kettle along with an assortment of instant hot beverages, cereals and soups. You can also purchase a small refrigerator for the dormitory, but some colleges restrict the size of appliances, so be sure you know what is allowed.

One gift idea that is both thoughtful and helpful would be a gift basket filled with laundry items. The basket itself could be foldable laundry hamper that can be used to tote clothes back and forth from the laundry facility. Fill the basket with detergent, fabric softener, laundry instructions and a bag of quarters to use for the wash. This is a great going-away gift for your student.

Before heading off to college, you can surprise your student with a book bag or a laptop bag that can carry a ton of supplies. High quality headphones are another great option that can help a student focus or help them avoid bothering a roommate. Anything that is small and has several functions is a good idea, such as alarm clock that does duty as a speaker system and charger for an iPhone or Smartphone.
