Addressing Student Mail

All mail from University of South Carolina departments should follow the guidelines for student mail as outlined below:

• When addressing envelopes to students, use the following format:

  Letter size envelopes, parcels, post cards

Jane E Doe (first name, middle initial, last name)

USC Box 8xxxx (5 digit box number)

Campus Envelopes

From:  USC Postal Services (Department Name)

To:  Jane E Doe (First Name, Middle Initial, Last Name)

Department:  USC Box 8xxxx (5 digit box number)

• Include the student's middle initial in the name because we do have students with the same first an last name.
• Seal all envelopes.  This will insure privacy for the student.
• Tuck all flaps in on Campus envelopes.
• Envelopes must be in ascending USC Box number order.  This will expedite the placement of mail
