Important Information regarding items sent through the Postal Service
Packages sent via the United States Postal Service (USPS) must be sent to the student's post office box in the Ferguson Center. The Postal Service does not deliver to the Paty Package Center. Students can rent a post office box by visiting the on-campus Post Office located in the 1st Floor of the Ferguson Center.
When sending a package to a student's post office box, the address should include the following information:
Student Name
P.O. Box 86______ (this is the student's post office box number)
