End Of The Year Information From NSU Postal Services:
NSU Mail Services will provide mail-forwarding service to students currently renting an NSU Post Office Box. This service begins on May 13th and continues until July 19th, 2019. It is strongly recommended that you notify anyone who does send you mail (especially on-line retailers) your change of address and the effective date. Mail received by NSU Mail Services after Friday, July 19th, 2019 will be returned to sender unless you notify us at postoffice@nsula.edu that you will either be living on campus or would like to maintain your mailbox for Fall of 2019.
Please be aware that in accordance with USPS rules standard mail and other classes of mail such as media mail may not be forwarded or will be forwarded and arrive with postage due. Additionally, mail cannot be forwarded outside of the United States. Please also be aware that both United Parcel Service and Federal Express do not allow for forwarding. Any packages we receive from those carriers during the Summer will be returned to sender. Also, this forwarding only applies to mail received at the NSU Post Office. You must still update your address with all other NSU departments.
To forward your mail please visit: www.nsula.edu/auxiliary/postal-services/howtoforward/
If you will be residing on campus during the Summer or would like to keep your mailbox with us during the Summer months, please stop by the front window and we can arrange for you to keep your current mailbox. The box rent is $12.00 for the entire Summer. If you are living on campus the charge will be placed automatically on your account.
Please also be aware that if you do not maintain your mailbox with us for the Summer you may have a different mailbox assignment next Fall. When you return to campus for The Fall Semester please be sure to come by the post office to confirm your mailbox assignment with us.
Thank you and have a great Summer! If you have any questions please contact us at postoffice@nsula.edu.

This service begins Monday, May 13th and continues until Friday, July 19th. We strongly recommended that you notify all business mailers, personal mailers, magazines and others regarding your change o...Earth Day Fact:
Over 100,000,000 trees are cut down a year to make junk mail and creating that same junk mail emits more than 50,000,000 tons of greenhouse gasses a year. Also, over 80% of junk mail is immediately discarded and not even looked at. If you are currently receiving junk mail that you no longer want please call the toll free number from the sender and ask that you be taken off the mailing list. You may also give the unwanted piece to any NSU Post Office employee and we will call and ask that you be removed. Please also consider going on direct deposit for your NSU payroll and refund checks as well. Not only will you save paper you will get your money much more quickly!
The NSU Post Office will be closed this Friday, April 19th for Easter. We will close at 5:30 pm on Thursday, April 18th, and reopen on Monday, April 22nd at 7:00 am.
Thanks and have a great Holiday!
Today is April 15th, otherwise known as Tax Day. This means that federal income taxes are due to be mailed today. Please keep in mind that although the NSU Post Office is open till 5:30, the outgoing mail leaves the NSU Post Office at 4:00. Any mail that we receive after 3:50 pm today will not be postmarked until tomorrow, April 16th. Thanks and please contact us with any questions.
Believe it or not, next week is Spring Break. The NSU Post Office will be open every day with our normal operating hours next week. However, we will be doing some rearranging during that time. Accordingly, we are strongly encouraging everyone to please come by to see if you have any packages that need to be picked up before you head out. Some packages have been here since September and will be returned to sender if not picked up by the last day of the semester. Thanks and have a great week!
The NSU Post Office will be closed Monday, March 4th for Mardi Gras. We will reopen on Tuesday, March 5th at 7:00 am. Please have a safe and festive Mardi Gras!
Monday, February 18th, is President's Day and a federal holiday. Accordingly, the USPS will be closed. However, The NSU Post Office will be open Monday. We will not be receiving any mail, or sending any mail out, but any mail that comes in on Saturday will be available for you to pick up. UPS and Federal Express will be delivering to us on Monday as well. Thank you and have a great weekend.
With Valentine's Day and Mardi Gras quickly approaching please keep the following items in mind:
1. Please let all those who may be sending you so a King Cake, flowers, candy etc....that those items must be sent to your NSU Box and picked up here. If the delivery company is having an issue verifying an address please ask them to call us at 357-5696 and we can help them out.
2. The NSU Post Office does not have a refrigerator. Accordingly, we can only keep perishable items for a limited time. If a perishable item is not picked up within a few days we will have to throw the item away (this is especially important to keep in mind if someone is planning on sending you a fruit bouquet from Sweet Fruit Delights on Front Street as they spoil quickly). Please check your mailbox regularly to see if anyone has sent you something perishable.
Thank you and have a great Week.
Due to the large amount of textbooks and packages we are currently receiving, The NSU Post Office will stay open till 1:00 pm, on Friday, January 25th. Please feel free to come by any time before then to pick up any packages you may have.
