<p>Does anyone know if you are allowed to install window ac units ? My daughter's roommate is suggesting to buy one - she knows of other kids doing this. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>They told me on the tour but I forgot. Make sure though that they really need an AC, because all the kids told me that they never needed more than a fan. Theres not really many hot days in PA during the school year.</p>
<p>Thanks - they are doing the leap program June 26 - Aug 10th so I think they might need some AC.</p>
<p>Penn State doesn’t allow the installation of personal air conditioners in the dorms. The only way you get one is a documented medical need.</p>
