In conjunction with the US Postal Service, Mail Services has developed the U of O address system for incoming mail. Each department on campus has a distinct mailing address that is different from its physical address and does not change, even in the case of a building move.

UO Addresses FAQ's
Q: Why are the mailing and physical addresses different?
A: The university-assigned addresses are specific to each department with a physical address and a designated mailing address that does not change. This way, departments do not need to update their mailing address if they move to a different building or separate from a shared office.
Q: Who manages the UO addresses?
A: Mail Services and USPS manage the UO addresses together, but Mail Services is the primary point of contact.
Q: What should I do if our department is moving?
A: Please notify Mail Services at least TWO WEEKS in advance if:
- Your department is physically moving to another building (even if temporarily)
- Your department name has changed
Early notification allows us sufficient time to adjust the delivery schedule and avoid service disruptions to your department.
