The Sju Mail Room is a convenient service that allows students and faculty to send and receive packages and mail. Mailboxes are located in various locations on campus.
You can find the main mail room in the Student Union Building, open Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm.
The mail room is staffed by friendly and helpful employees who can assist with package pickup, mail forwarding, and other services.
Mail Room Issues
The Sju mail room is located on the first floor of the building, making it easily accessible to students and staff. The mail room is open from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday.
Students often complain about long wait times to collect their mail, with some reports of up to 2 hours. The mail room staff tries to process mail as quickly as possible, but the high volume of packages and letters can slow things down.
The mail room has a limited number of mailboxes, which can lead to overcrowding and confusion. Students are encouraged to label their mailboxes clearly to avoid mix-ups.
The Sju mail room has a strict policy against sending packages to the mail room for storage. This is to prevent clutter and maintain a safe working environment.
Students can pick up their packages at the Sju mail room during regular business hours. The mail room staff will call students when their package arrives, so they can collect it promptly.
Mail Distribution Information
You'll need your student ID or a government-issued photo ID to pick up your mail at the mailroom window. Make sure to bring one of these forms of ID, as a photo from your phone's "Get" app won't cut it.
Packages received for resident students are processed through a tracking system for security and proper delivery. You'll receive a confirmation email from "neopostwts" at your Fisher address for every package you receive.
