IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM MAIL SERVICES

The university Mail Service staff is excited about your arrival to campus. Mail Services offers a full array of services from USPS, UPS and FedEx, along with mailing supplies and package preparation services.

As you prepare to come to campus, we ask that you minimize the number of items shipped to campus to avoid crowding and long lines in our mail-room. The Benson Center will have capacity limits that may increase the time it may take to connect you with your package(s). We recommend you bring what you need with you as you travel to campus for move-in.

First-year student PO Box keys will be distributed on move-in day as part of your Residence Life & Housing packet.
