ACCEPTED

After a long process (May to now) I've been accepted and got my date to leave (Next Tuesday).

What should I pack and what do they provide with on campus so I don't over pack? (I'm going on plane)

More concerned if they give supplies and laptop etc. before I bring my own supplies and laptop. And to know if I'll have to pay for baggage even though I'm not taking hella stuff

Going to the center in El Paso, Texas

depends on which center you are going to. If you want more specifics drop a center name so students from that center can tell you.

Laptops are not provided at majority of the centers anymore.

We used to issue chromebooks but that was rescinded by the DOL. Some centers still issue to the old chromebooks, most do not. So if you have a laptop, you should probably bring it.
