@Publisher At both of my kid’s colleges only a/c units installed by the college (generally requiring a doctor’s note and an additional fee) were allowed. A person installing an a/c unit outside of the system (portable or window) could get expelled from the dorm. Portable a/c units do have a hose that needs to vent through a window (my D has one in her apartment) so while not as obvious as a window a/c they can been seen from outside. Plus the RA could see a portable unit in a room (they are big and noisy). Unless the rules at the OP’s college are different and allow for portable a/c units it is not worth the risk IMO. Plus there is just a week left in the semester.

However, looking towards next year the OP may want to get a doctor’s note and arrange for a/c in his/her room to avoid future issues.
