A small but useful note

Dress for the day ahead.

Comfort first. You’ll be walking a lot in your first week, so save the formal fits for when they matter.

First day

Formals are a safe choice—keep it neat and comfortable.

For boys

A formal shirt, polo, or plain tee with clean jeans or trousers works well.

For girls

A short or long kurti with jeans is a common, comfortable option.

Simple rule

Avoid flashy looks; dress decently and comfortably without overspending.
