How do I address mail or packages to my student?
When sending mail (whether it be letters or packages) to a student, please include the student’s box number to avoid delays. Please do not use nicknames; the name on all mailed or shipped items must match the name on the student’s UR ID. The proper mailing address for on-campus mail is:
Student Full Name
UR Mailbox Number
410 Westhampton Way
Richmond, VA 23173 -
Where is the Campus Post Office located?

Our hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.

How early can I begin sending mail or packages to my student for the academic year?
