Student Mail Fall Move-In
Whether you're new to Tufts or coming back after an amazing summer, the mailroom is here to help with all your mail and packages. Our website has all the info you need about student mail but we've put this page together to give you some highlights for move-in or using the mailroom for the first time.
How do I address my mail?
You’ll need to know your Unique Mail Code and include that on all mail and packages. The UMC can be found in your SIS Profile. Please review the detailed instructions for addressing mail.
How do I pick up my mail?
Alerts! You don’t need to come to the Mail Center to look for your package. We will let you know when it get’s checked in and when it is ready for pick up!
Make it quick! When you do come to the Mail Center, we look forward to seeing you, but we plan to make it a quick visit! The Kiosks will allow you to tap or swipe your ID when you walk in, and we will meet you at the counter with your package!
The mailroom is located at 389 Boston Avenue, Medford, MA 02155. The entrance is through the parking lot located on the backside of the building.
Sending packages early for move-in?
You’ll be able to send packages to the mailroom prior to your arrival. Please plan for your packages to arrive at least 2 days prior to your arrival. This will give the mailroom time to check in your packages and alert you that they have arrived. The mailroom will be open extended hours during move-in.
SMFA Beacon Street Residences pre-move-in packages:
Students living the Beacon Street residences may ship packages prior to their arrival and they will be delivered to the SMFA Mail Room in time for official move-in dates, 8/24, 8/29.
To facilitate the storage and delivery of these packages, SMFA Beacon Street residents will need to ship their packages for arrival no later than 8/11.
