Student Mail and Packages

How we handle your mail and packages.

How we handle your mail and packages when you leave campus.

Letter mail and packages are returned to the sender. Students wishing to have a mis-delivered package rerouted can contact Mail Service at fasmailroom@dickinson.edu to request an authorization form.

Students receive an email at the end of each semester with details on how mail and packages are handled during the summer and winter break.

Graduates (February and May)

It is the responsibility of the graduate to inform all correspondents (banks, magazines, newspaper subscriptions, and families) of their change of address. All mail and packages that arrive following graduation will be returned to sender unless an authorization form has been completed and given to a Mail Services staff member.

International Mail and Packages

Letter mail and packages are held on campus for students living outside of the US during the summer and winter break if the student is returning to campus for the upcoming semester and has filled out an authorization form at the mailroom. If you are not returning to campus, please notify mail services and all mail/packages will be RETURNED TO THE SENDER. Upon graduation, it is the responsibility of the student to notify banks, magazines, newspaper subscriptions, and families of your change of address.
