How often do students in college, on average, do laundry?

depends on how much clothing you own.
i do laundry once a week or every 8 days.

I do laundry whenever I run out of underwear and socks. Just buy like 30 pairs of each and you will only have to do laundry once a month. BTW do your laundry at the college, if you do it at home it tends to wrinkle when you bring it back in the car.

From above:

"I do laundry whenever I run out of underwear and socks. Just buy like 30 pairs of each and you will only have to do laundry once a month."

This thread should end. There are too many parents on this board who just don't want to know the answers, including to the following question: Where do all those used underwear and socks sit for all those days in between doing laundry?

I do my laundry every 3-4 weeks, and the used underwear and socks sit in my laundry basket.

damn. in asia labor is cheap.. all we have to do is drop our clothes in the laundry basket, and in about 12-24 hours, they're in your closet.. all ironed, and clean.. muhaahhaahha,

but yeah. now its going to be me doing all my laundry myself.. i'm actually looking forward to it,

Drusba, you read my mind! Add to that list of questions: Do you at least knock out the smell with Lysol or does that hamper have a lid?
