Living in State College
Moving to a new area can be stressful. In order to make it as easy as possible, please use the following resources for everything from banking options to area health clubs.
- Banking - There are a number of banks in State College, including a PSU credit union available to graduate students. However, most banks require a minimum balance to avoid service charges. ATM machines (MAC, HONOR, TRINET, AMEX, PLUS, and CIRRUS) are scattered throughout the town and campus. We advise you to get a card before you arrive because it normally takes two weeks to process the application. As far as cashing out-of town checks, some stores will cash them for a small fee with a valid ID.
