Laundry

All residential students* get 40 included laundry cycles per semester.  Students are able to apply the following payment methods for their laundry cycle usage:

1. Coin payment
2. Debit & Credit card payment
3. “Free Allowance” cycle usage if the SQ app is used to facilitate funds for laundry service

All university residence halls have laundry facilities, usually located in common areas (either on each floor, or centrally located in the building’s first floor or basement), or located in-room/unit at The Dakota, 1959 E Street, and South Hall.

• All operating directions are posted on bulletin boards in the laundry rooms.
• Washers and dryers are both priced at $1.75 per use. 

*Residential students with laundry in their room will not get laundry credits as they are not needed.
