Starting College In A Few Weeks

[Ajax]

As the title says I will be going off to college in the next 2-3 weeks. What I want to know is, do you think I should get a Tablet, Laptop, or both, if in the $500 range.
Here are my details/requirements:

~Need quite fast speed.
~A word processor
~Access to the internet
~Multitasking Capabilities(Mostly Computers, but some Tablets)
~Expandable Memory(Tablets mostly)
~If it's a tablet, I would like 8-16 Gb built in
~Ability to view textbook(My school has nookstudy for mac/pc, but no tablet support)

what do you mean by a Tablet, Laptop, or both, you wanna both???

I was trying to figure out what would be better for college. Either a Laptop, or a Tablet. If they both were in the $500 range when added together and the Tablet and Laptop were good enough, I would try and get both.
