Your personal expenses are things you may or may not need on a regular basis during the academic term. Items may include toiletry items (i.e. toothpaste, deodorant, etc.), gas for the car to get from home to campus, etc. These really vary from student to student, but they are items you need from time to time so they account for them.

pizza for one Trust me you DO NOT want dining hall food every day for the next four years…..then personal items such as toiletries(toothpaste, soap, shampoo—our college did provide TP but it was horrible), also you may need to buy things such as school supplies(pens, paper etc)
