The HomeScholar’s Reading List for college-bound students! A selection of books, drawn from a variety of different reading lists. They represent the books that we at The HomeScholar are both familiar with and feel comfortable recommending to college-bound students.
It’s not possible (or even desirable!) for any student to read all the books on every college-bound reading list, and not every book will be appropriate for every child. However, reading from a broad cross-section of both American and World literature will help prepare your students to understand a variety of different cultures and times, and strengthen their knowledge and understanding of great literature.
It is an exciting day for some and sad for others: The day your graduate moves from home to college! Before they head out to that new adventure though, they need to pack! When you consider how small the typical dorm room is, this clearly becomes a challenging process. On the one hand, they need to avoid borrowing everything from their neighbors. But you also don’t want to arrive with a pod full of stuff that won’t fit in a tiny dorm room. Space is usually at a premium, so think efficiency as you plan.
