Mail box assignment
- Prior to fall of 2011, students could choose whether to
sign up for a mail box or not.
- Due to the need for the University to communicate with
students who live on campus, we are providing all
resident students with mailboxes.
- As of fall 2011, mail boxes are assigned to all incoming
resident students.
- If you do not have a box, you cannot receive mail at SMU,
all mail will be returned to sender.
- If residents have not been assigned a mail
box, Baran and Burton
residents may open a box in Spangler Hall, or Old Main.
Mail forwarding
- At the end of fall and spring semester, each box owner
needs to submit a mail forwarding slip to the mail room.
- After graduation, residents should provide the SMU Mail
Room with a forwarding address, if they wish to continue
to receive mail being sent to their SMU box.
Parcel slips
When a resident receives a parcel (any mail that does not fit
in the mail box) they will find a parcel slip in their box. In
order to retrieve this parcel, they must present this slip and
photo identification to the Mail Room.
