Mail Delivery

Post Office Boxes (to be used after you arrive to campus)

To receive United States Postal Service (USPS) mail on campus, all students are required to have a U. S. Post Office Box. https://www.usps.com/manage/po-boxes.htm. You cannot ship your items to the US post office until you activate your post office box number. Packages mailed to 250 Church Street must have a scannable bar code, all other packages without a scannable bar code, will be returned to sender. Only packages are accepted, no mail or correspondence (including magazines, bank statements, cards and letters).

A mobile unit at Yale Station for student PO box registration will be available August 17 through September 17 and may extend further accommodating for the 14 day quarantine period due to COVID-19.

U. S. mail sent to you at Yale without your Post Office Box number or the Yale Station street address will be subject to delay in delivery, and in some cases will be returned to the sender. There is no direct delivery by U. S. mail to Yale buildings, so do not include the street address of your residential college or dormitory on packages sent by U. S. mail. All packages addressed to colleges or dorms, will be sent back to sender.

To ensure that US mail can be addressed and delivered to students living on-campus, Yale’s existing policy requiring students to establish a PO Box and mailing address at Yale Station remains in effect. The temporary practice of Campus Mail delivering student US Mail to each residential college office will be discontinued. Starting October 1, 2019, misaddressed US Mail will be returned to sender. Exceptions will be made for voting ballots, passports, and jury duty notices, which on-campus students without PO Boxes can address to themselves at their residential college office address, for delivery by Campus Mail.
