While summer days are still in full swing, now is the best time to start preparing for college. Whether you’re a first-generation college student and your familia is still wondering why you’re missing out on all the carne asada action to go to another state, or you’re in your last year, as Abuela says: más vale prevenir que lamentar.

Of course, Amazon is helping kick-start off to college shopping with a comprehensive range of college essentials across every imaginable category. The best part? It’s all in one place with their Off to College guide, where you can search by brand, style, category, and deals, as well as top 100 finds and influencer picks–all with fast, free delivery for Prime members.


College students and young adults ages 18-24 can also benefit from a Prime Student membership, featuring all the same benefits of a regular Prime membership (plus some additional exclusive offers!) at a discounted rate of $7.29 a month, or $69 a year. You can try it out for six months at no cost, just visit amazon.com/joinstudent to get started.
