Will you forward my mail?
The United States Postal Service currently does not offer Forwarding Service for students who have been living in college housing. The Postal Service has determined that it is the responsibility of the institution to forward mail and not that of the Postal Service. With that in mind, completing a change of address form with the USPS will not result in your mail being forwarded from your college address to your new address. Upon completion of the forwarding form to be completed prior to check-out, 最新三级片 College will forward your mail for a short amount of time, however, we will only forward First Class mail (letters, bills, bank statements, etc.) for one semester and periodicals for 90 days after the student leaves 最新三级片 College. Standard Mail (credit card offers, Best Buy Flyers, etc.) will be destroyed. Unless prior arrangements have been made, and payment for forwarding a UPS or Fed-Ex parcel has been received, those parcels will be returned to Sender. United States Postal Service parcels can be forwarded to your new address, however, there may be a charge to you, which you will be required to pay upon receipt at the United States Postal Service. It is up to the student to contact mailers (for example friends, family, any magazine where you have subscriptions, banks, credit card companies, etc.) with your new address. |

First Class Mail – Any piece of mail weighing up to 13 ounces or less may be sent First Class. Priority Mail – All first class mail weighing more than 13 ounces and not exceeding 70 pounds is considered priority mail. You may also send mail pieces weighing less than 13 ounces as Priority mail, however, it is a higher cost than First Class mail. In addition, you can use a Flat Rate priority envelope or box that allows you to send something anywhere in the country for one price as opposed to a pricing based on weight and destination. The cost for this service varies between the use of an envelope, a medium Flat rate box and a large Flat rate box. The use of Priority Mail is generally, when a shorter delivery time frame is needed. Priority Mail is generally a 2-3-day service from our location. Parcel Post – The following items may be sent via Parcel Post: packages, merchandise, library materials, bound printed matter, sound recordings, video tapes or discs, computer media, books, and films. Each piece may not exceed 70 pounds in weight and a maximum size of 108 inches in length and girth combined. Rates are based on weight, distance, and shape. Media Mail - Media Mail may be used to mail books, sound recordings, recorded video tapes or discs, printed music, and recorded computer-readable media (such as CDs, DVDs, and diskettes). Media Mail cannot contain personal correspondence or advertising, and carries a maximum weight limit of 70 pounds. |
What type of envelope should I be using?
Please use the size of envelopes that best fits the contents. For use in the United States Postal System there are basically two categories of envelopes: letter size and “flats,” as referred to by the USPS. Letter-Size Envelope — Rectangular in shape with a: height between 3 ½” and 6 1/8”; length between 5” and 11 ½”; thickness between .007” and ¼”. These envelopes are best used for only a few sheets of paper. If you attempt to put too many sheets of paper in an envelope and cause the envelope to exceed ¾”, the envelope will be charged as a parcel. Flats-Size or Large Envelope — Large envelopes that exceed any one of the maximum dimensions of a letter are called “flats.” or “Large envelopes” The maximum size of a large envelope is 12” high, by 15” long by ¾” thick. Mail pieces that exceed the maximum dimensions for a large envelope will be charged as a parcel. *Note* Regardless of the type of mail piece, if there is more than a ¼” difference in the uniform thickness or the mail piece is rigid, it will be charged as a parcel. |
