All interoffice mail must be in the 11 x 4" interoffice envelopes or have XXXs in the upper right hand corner.

Outgoing Mail

1. Clearly mark all mail requiring special handling, such as Airmail, Registered, Certified, Insured, Special Delivery, Express Mail etc.
2. All mail must be sorted into two (2) trays - on campus mail and off campus mail. Large mailings should be separated into the following two groups: United States and Foreign Mail.  When large mailings are anticipated, please call with the college Mail Center.
3. All mail that is to be sealed by machine should be placed in the outgoing basket with all envelopes facing the same way and with the flaps up. The originating department should be clearly indicated on all mail. Pink accounts cards are available for all departments and/or accounts.

Change of Address

   1. 200 or more identical pieces are being mailed at the same time, and
   2. All pieces are the same weight and size.

Standard (bulk) Mail requires a little more work on the part of the departments; however, great savings in postage costs can be realized. Contact the college Mail Center for information regarding your bulk mailing requirements.

Federal Express

All Federal Express shipments for the college are processed through the university mailroom. Federal Express is extremely cost effective to ship packages. Be sure to let the mail center know what account number (or department) to use and the time frame needed for service (overnight, express, etc).

Student Mail
