DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress (twin XL): $549 plus $599 of free bedding at DreamCloud
DreamCloud is a perennial fixture on our yearly list of the best hybrid mattresses, and for good reason — the excellent build of the brand's mattresses exceed the mid-range prices, which bodes well if you're looking for something that can last your entire undergrad career (and beyond). At $549, it's already a stellar price for hotel-quality comfort — but the addition of a free bedding bundle (sheets, pillows, mattress protector) makes it an even better value for students on a budget, especially since twin XL-sized bedding isn't as commonly available as queen or standard twin sizes. As always, DreamCloud includes a one-year risk-free trial, a lifetime warranty, and free shipping to your apartment or dorm. The Classic is a brand-new release from DreamCloud, and it improves on its predecessor (see our DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress review) by adding more advanced cooling.

DreamCloud Classic Memory Foam: twin XL now $649 plus $599 of free bedding at DreamCloud
You'll need to stretch your budget a little wider here, but if you're a heavier sleeper and/or a strict back or stomach sleeper who likes a firm mattress, the all-foam version of the DreamCloud Classic will be your speed. Our full review is coming soon, but if there's one piece of advice I can offer from my DreamCloud Classic Memory Foam preview, it's: "Be patient." It'll take a couple of weeks for it to reach its intended feel — notably, it's the firmest mattress DreamCloud has on offer right now. A twin XL DreamCloud Classic Memory Foam is $100 more than its hybrid counterpart, but you'll still get free bedding, a one-year trial, a lifetime warranty, and free delivery to your apartment or dorm. In my opinion, it's still money well spent for firm mattress enthusiasts.

That sounds great...but can you replace a dorm mattress?
Every campus accommodation has its own rules, so it's best to check in with your residence hall director to see if you're allowed to bring a new mattress to your dorm.
Of course, if you're living in an off-campus apartment, you'll have a lot more flexibility regarding what you can do with your sleeping arrangements. You may even have extra space to work with compared to a traditional dorm, which means you could upgrade to a full or a queen, if your budget allows.
If your campus prohibits you from bringing your own mattress, you don't have to be doomed to an uncomfortable dorm bed — just add one of the best mattress toppers instead. These vary in price, with higher-end models costing close to the same as a budget to lower mid-range mattress.
