Rita Atkinson Residences

All letter mail and packages for the Rita Atkinson housing community are handled by the Student Mail team in partnership with the Rita Atkinson Residential Life team.

Letter mail and packages from USPS are delivered to Student Mail before being distributed to the Rita Atkinson Parcel Center within 1-2 days of receiving. All other carriers (i.e. UPS, FedEx, DHL, Amazon, etc.) deliver directly to the Rita Atkinson team. During peak periods (i.e. move-in, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Prime Day, etc.), letter mail and packages may be delayed up to 2 business days.
