Laundry Services

Life, not laundry! Students have two options for laundry services.

Laundry Facilities

Each residence hall offers a laundry room with high-efficiency washers and dryers. Nittany Apartments and Nittany Hall have a laundry room in Nittany Community Center.

Laundry machines only accept LionCash for payment (no coins).
