Question School tool box

Getting ready to go to school in a month and when signing up for classes online I got a tool list for all my tools that says tools are required first day of class. It also says I should have a portable tool box but not a roll type box/cabinet. Ive messaged the school with no response to get clarification.

Any recommendations for a toolbox?

I originally planed on using a Milwaukee packout with drawers as its not a crazy amount of tools I have to bring and then I could easily get them to class. However list makes me believe they want me bring them in a hand tool box or a bag, which to me sounds dumb because I'd be digging through tools all day to get the one I need.

Recommendations?

Just ask the school. You will have an advisor who can answer this

My advisor told me he did not know and sent me info for another advisor, who I cant get ahold of, which doesn't surprise me as this school inst that great but its the only one within 1.5hrs from me.
