When a parcel is processed at the Service Center, you will receive an email from 'Student Mail Services' with the subject of 'You've got mail! Envelope at North Campus Service Center.'  If you haven't received this email, it means the Service Center has not yet received or processed the parcel.  If you have any questions, please get in touch with the Service Center at scl-student-srv@mail.scl.cornell.edu

TIP: Always put your NetID in your mailing address.  Your NetID is the key piece of information that we use to process your mail and packages; not including it could result in slower processing times or a possible return to sender.
  • Service Centers will only accept packages that are 50 pounds or less.
  • Perishable Package Pickup Policy
    • If you are sending fresh food or other items that can spoil, clearly label the package with “PERISHABLE” in large, bold letters near the address label.
    • Please be aware of the following:
      • The Service Center does not have refrigeration.
      • Packages may take one or more days to be processed after arriving on campus.
      • You will receive a notification once your package has been processed and is ready for pickup. Do not attempt to pick up your package before receiving this message.
      • Exception:
        • Packages sent directly from food vendors (e.g., Hello Fresh, Goldbelly, local bakeries, etc.) are typically processed the same day they arrive, and you will be notified accordingly.
        • Once you receive the notification:
          • Perishable items must be picked up on the same day.
            Items not picked up that day will be discarded due to health and safety concerns.
            Please plan accordingly to avoid loss of your items.  
  • Please note that the Service Center is not a designated drop-off location for perishable food items or local deliveries. This includes services such as DoorDash, Grubhub, Instacart, Walmart, and Target.
    • Vendor deliveries of this nature are placed on the red shelves outside the second-floor entrance of Robert Purcell Community Center (RPCC). Students should plan to retrieve their items directly from that location.
  • The Service Center will only hold packages for seven (7) days after they are processed and return parcels to the sender on the eighth (8th) day. 
Sending Medication: We advise sending student medication to the Cornell Health pharmacy. You can mail your refrigerated (or other) prescription to the pharmacy. Once received, the student will be notified and can pick up their medication. Please direct those packages to the following address:
Cornell Health Pharmacy, ATTN: Tracey DeNardo, 110 Ho Plaza, Ithaca, NY 14853
