The Mail Room

We have received several questions about the mail room and mailing procedures. So I am going to attempt to answer them.

You have or will be given a mailbox number before or during orientation. This should have been mailed to you before orientation began, but you will definitely will be given it again when you arrive. If you have your address and wish to ship stuff to yourself before you arrive you may do so. During orientation you will be given the key to your mailbox.

The mailbox number is typically four digits and will be the address that friends and relatives can send parcels through. You will use the university address but insert your name and mail box number. Your address will look like this.

John Smith
Box XXXX
3700 Willow Creek Road
Prescott, AZ 86301

Note: You mailbox will be the same the entire time you stay at the Prescott campus. You will never have to return the key until graduation. If you lose a key or need a replacement you will be charged. The fee is typically around $50.

All student mail goes to the Mail Room, it does not go to dorm rooms or anywhere else. In the Mail Room all letters will be put into you box. If you receive a parcel that is too large a package slip will be in your box. You must present this slip and your Eagle Card inside of the Mail Room in order to receive your package.

If you wish to mail a letter or parcel the Mail Room has all of the necessary shipping supplies and payment options. It also is the location of some the nicest employees at Riddle.

The Mail Room is in building 11 which is North of the Bookstore, west of the Hunt Student Union, and south of the Cashier's Office. See Campus Map

That should cover just about everything that is important about the Mail Room

Special Note: Amazon has a distribution center in Phoenix which ensures that nearly anything ordered form them will arrive within 2-3 days regardless of shipping method.
