You must be a registered student within the academic year to acquire a Stanford University P.O. Box.
Priority is given to students in the residences without mail service.
Freshman and transfer students are automatically assigned a P.O. Box. All other students must apply for a box at the Student P.O. Box Rental Office. Each spring, all box holders are contacted by mail to inquire if they wish to renew their P.O. Box for the following year. The U.S. Post Office sorts the mail into the P.O. Boxes. Access to the P.O. Boxes is 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
