Go with the laptop all the way. I am in my final semester and I STILL wish I would have originally bought a laptop instead of a desktop when I first headed to college. It is especially good if you don't live on campus, or your campus is very big so that you don't have to run to your room to use your computer.
 
if you really dont need all the grunt of a desktop, and would preffer portability, a laptop is the way to go ;) i desperately wanted one, but laptops dont really cut it for 3D modelling/design :eek:
