What to Bring 

INFORMATION FOR OFF-CAMPUS STUDENTS

If you are a commuter student, you will not need anything to participate in Beau Camp! Just bring yourself and your bulldog charm.

 

INFORMATION FOR HOUSING STUDENTS

If you are a housing student, below is a list of suggested items to make your dorm room comfortable! Make sure you stop by the Beau Camp table on your move-in day for your BeauCamp Schedule.

At Navarro, turning your room into a comfortable new home is one of the important parts of the college experience. However, don’t bring everything you own since you will be sharing that space with your roommate. Contact your roommate when you receive your hall/room assignment and decide together what items to bring and how you want the room to look. We also recommend no more than one vehicle-load of personal belongings. Below is a sample of things you may want to bring with you for move in.
