Mail and Post Office Boxes
Incoming mail from the U.S. Postal Service is delivered to the mail room Monday through Friday. Mail is processed as it is received and sorted to the appropriate post office box. Post office boxes are accessible whenever the SLTC is open.
Students may request a personal post office box at the service window during regular business hours. A post office box can be assigned to campus departments by contacting Mail Services. There is no cost for a campus post office box. If you need assistance with a post office box including a forgotten combination or lost key, please contact Mail Services.
Campus mail is processed and sorted into appropriate post office boxes throughout the day, or if no post office box is assigned, then mail will be logged as a "package" and available for pickup from the service window (see "Packages" below).
Packages
Typically, incoming packages from couriers (FedEx, UPS, DHL, Amazon) are delivered to the mail room Monday through Friday between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM. When a package is received for you, a notification will be sent via email. You may also request text message notifications from Mail Services. Please note that notifications from the courier do not necessarily mean that your package has been received and processed by the mail room. Only notifications from Mail Services indicate that a package is ready for pickup.
Packages can be picked up from the mail room window during regular business hours. Signature is required to pick up packages, and staff may request valid photo ID or a copy of the package notification.

- Due to storage limitations,
please be sure that you or someone else will be available to pick up a shipped item
