Suri Cruise may have two uber-famous parents in Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, but when it comes to moving into college, she's just like a normal teen.

Photos obtained by The Daily Mail show the Dawson's Creek alum, 45, and the college student arriving on the Carnegie Mellon campus on Sunday, August 18. In the pictures, Suri, 18, and Holmes were spotted carrying bags and unpacking together as Suri moved into her dorm.

The proud mom was seen sharing smiles with her daughter on the school's Pittsburgh campus, where Suri is starting as a freshman. The mother-daughter duo carried suitcases and wore complimentary outfits. Suri was looking breezy and stylish in an off-the shoulder white top, baggy denim capris, and practical white sneakers. She accessorized with a floral statement necklace. Holmes also got the white and denim memo, opting for a cream and gray striped button-down shirt, loose-fitting jeans, layered necklaces, and black flats.

Carnegie Mellon, which U.S. News ranks as #24 in its list of National Universities, hosts a week of first year orientation programming before classes begin on Monday, August 26, according to their academic calendar. Sources also told The Daily Mail that Suri will have a roommate for the semester.

Suri turned 18 this April and graduated from high school in New York City in June. In her high school graduation pamphlet, she was listed as "Suri Noel," opting to use her mother's middle name as a surname instead of being associated with her father.

While Holmes and Suri share a close bond, Cruise allegedly has a completely estranged relationship with his daughter and ex-wife. According to Page Six, Tom and Suri have not seen each other since 2012, and sources told the site that the actress, writer, and director was determined to protect their daughter from being indoctrinated into Scientology. Holmes has allegedly signed NDAs that prevent her from speaking about her relationship with her ex-husband. Cruise, who carried the torch at the Olympics earlier this month, is currently filming the latest Mission Impossible installment in London.
