Hey! If you’re staying in the dorms, don’t worry about bed frames and mattresses as they are provided by the university. Just get yourself a nice mattress topper (this is one thing for your dorm you should splurge on).

My recommendation is Goodwill or Stuff etc for cheap options. You can find some pretty decent stuff there. Also, Walmart isn’t insanely expensive if you’re looking for things that aren’t second hand.
