Packing for Your Trip

Some airlines charge fees to check a bag and some limit the number or size of bags that you can carry on. Check the airline website for their policy regarding baggage sizes and checked bag fees and make a plan for what bag(s) you will bring before you pack.

Weather in Hanover can vary. Please check weather.com to look ahead at the Hanover, NH weather forecast and plan accordingly. We recommend layers and comfortable shoes.

If you are being hosted overnight by a current student in a residence hall, bring a sleeping bag.
