On Oct. 1, the USPS changed its mail processing operations, as a cost-cutting measure, and has impacted delivery timeframes. The USPS timelines to process mail have increased, and is not expected to be a temporary delay due to supply chain issues.

Office Services continues to collect and process mail from the USPS daily, however due to the changes by USPS, mail is being delayed.

Given the USPS process changes and logistical challenges facing independent carries like UPS and FedEx, we advise departments to expect and plan for extended mail and package processing times. These impacts are a national issue and we recognize the impacts that it is having on our campus.

We thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
