Establishing an NCU Mailbox

h2>Service Description

Your campus mailbox is your official university address for everything from care packages to financial aid notifications. Unlike some schools, NCU doesn't automatically assign mailboxes - you need to request one. Once assigned, your mailbox stays with you for your entire time at NCU.

Who Can Use This Service

  • New students who need a campus mailbox
  • Current students who haven't previously had a mailbox
  • Students returning after extended absence

What's Included

  • Individual physical mailbox assignment
  • Mailbox key (also opens package lockers)
  • Official campus mailing address
  • Address registration in all university systems
  • 24/7 mailbox access when Miller Hall is open

Important Information

Your official address will be:
Your Name
910 Elliot Ave #[Your Mailbox Number]
Minneapolis, MN 55404

Your mailbox key is valuable: It opens both your mailbox and package lockers. Lost keys cost $10 to replace and take 24-48 hours.

Not automatic: You must request a mailbox - they're not automatically assigned to all students.
