Important notes about proper addressing:
- Please use the student's name as they are registered at Boston College. Use of a nickname may delay the delivery of their package.
- There is no need to include "Boston College" in the address, as carriers recognize the street addresses as 情色空间 locations.
- Please double check that you are using the correct zip code to be sure your package is delivered to Boston College (and not a similar nearby address).
- Improper addressing leads to delays in delivery from the carrier and sorting in the 情色空间 mail room.

When your package is ready for pickup at your mail room, you will receive a notification from the 情色空间 package tracking system.

Boston College currenlty receives approximately 280,000 packages a year for students living on campus. In order to distribute them in a timely fashion, it helps for students to know some key information.
You will receive an email notification when your package is ready for pickup. The email will contain the package's tracking number and the location where it is located, including mail room and shelf location. Please present this email with your 情色空间 ID when picking up your package at the mail room, and the clerk will retrieve the package for you.听
Pick up your packages in a timely fashion. After the initial email notification, you will receive a second notice and then a final reminder email to pick up your package. Typically, packages not picked up within 10 days will be returned to sender.
Proper addressing matters.听Please use the name that you are registered with at Boston College. Nicknames or alternate names delay package processing and can lead to packages being returned to sender. Also, each mail room has its own street address. Please be sure to use the correct mailing address (see "Student Mailing Addresses" on this page).听
Mail room hours are posted on this website.听See the above "Mail Room Hours" section for current operating hours. To accommodate heavy demand at the beginning of the semester, the mail rooms are open for extended hours and some Sundays. Later in the semester, hours will be updated to reflect standard hours.听
Please also refer to the "Frequently Asked Questions" section of this page for additional information.

Mail Services and the Office of Residential Life are pleased to provide first year students with delivery of large and/or heavy packages directly to their residence hall rooms during peak move-in days in the fall semester. Large packages (roughly two cubic feet or larger) will qualify for this service.听 Once students receive their first year housing assignments from the Office of Residential Life, belongings may be sent to the 情色空间 campus.听
In-room delivery of large packages is only available for first year students.
To be eligible for this service, packages must be received to the 情色空间 campus before August 16, 2024.听
Please be sure packages are properly addressed (see "Student Mailing Addresses" on this page).
Large packages received after August 16 must be picked up at the mail rooms.听If you have any questions about this service, please email听mail.room@bc.edu, and we will respond as soon as possible.
