Mail and Package Delivery

All FedEx, DHL, or UPS deliveries or packages that require a signature must be picked up with the student’s Hofstra ID (HofstraCard or HofPass) at the Student Post Office on the lower level of the Hofstra University Bookstore in the Mack Student Center, North Campus. Inquiries can be sent to hofstrapostoffice@hofstra.edu. If a package requiring a signature is delivered on a Saturday, please check with Public Safety for your package. To pick up a package at Public Safety, the student must present their Hofstra ID.  

All outgoing packages are shipped through the United States Postal Service, and cash is the only accepted form of payment. Please note: At this time, the Hofstra Bookstore cannot ship packages outside of the United States. Additionally, the Student Post Office is not able to accept outgoing UPS or FedEx packages. Questions should be directed by email to hofstrapostoffice@hofstra.edu.  

Packages delivered to the residence halls are distributed by resident assistants. For accurate delivery, mail should be addressed as follows:

Mail Forwarding/Change of Address  

Effective the day after spring undergraduate commencement, mail and packages addressed to any residence hall except for the summer residence hall will be returned to sender by the U.S. Postal Service. ONLY FIRST-CLASS MAIL will be forwarded to a student’s address on record. As third-class and bulk rate mail is not forwarded, the Office of Residence Life strongly urges you to contact companies with which you have monthly subscriptions to give them your summer address.  

Summer residents must use the address for the summer residence hall to avoid mail disruption. Any student not residing on campus over the summer should update their mailing address in late April by following the instructions at hofstra.edu/reslifeaddresses.  

Amazon Locker  

Amazon Locker is a self-service kiosk offered by Amazon. Amazon customers can select Hofstra’s on-campus Locker location, “Cria,” as their delivery address and retrieve their orders at that location by entering a unique pickup code on the Locker touch screen. The Amazon Locker is located on the lower level of the Mack Student Center, in the hallway between the Pride Den and the Game Room. To access Hofstra’s Locker and set up this location as your preferred Locker, visit amazon.com/ulp/view.  

*During peak times, the Locker may be unavailable due to capacity. The Locker will appear grayed-out during checkout; this means the Locker has no available slots to receive your package. Manually adding the Locker as the shipping address will not equate to a Locker delivery. Please only choose a Locker as the shipping address from your address book.  

Please refer questions or concerns related to the Locker to the phone number listed on the Locker.
