Urgent Needs and Other Options
We recognize that some students may have urgent items sent during these times. The Lowell Post Office located next to the Tsongas Center has post office (P.O.) boxes available for rent and other vendors in the city are still available for private mail services.
Use the Amazon lockers in O'Leary Library (Amazon Locker - Moody) and at the East Campus Garage (Amazon Locker - Enoki) for on-campus deliveries if you are ordering from Amazon.
Packages and mail received for students not currently residing on campus are subject to the university’s standard procedures and will be “returned to sender."
Please adjust all shipping addresses to reflect your current residential address.
