Sony in-ear Headphones block noise

 Think of them as tiny speakers that help you block out the world. Help your kid study better with in-ear noise isolating headphones. Unline noise cancelling headphones which only block certain frequencies that have a droning feature like jet engines and air ducts, noise isolating headphones will heavily deaden all surrounding noise. The Sony MDREX85LP/BLK Soft Earbud w/ Soft Clip & Case will fit the bill perfectily  in this case allowing the wearer to concentrate on the task at hand rather than the surrounding partying, I mean dorm noise.

Of course if your student has a taste in loud music or gets too into listening, these will do absolutely nothing to promote better studying. But at under $40 at least they won't break the bank.
