Change of Address

It is important that you inform all necessary parties that you will be at an overseas address during your semester or summer abroad, in order to avoid lost mail, ensure efficient bill payments and other issues.

  1. Turn in a “Change of Address Request” at the Post office to ensure your campus mail is forwarded to your permanent address or to a trusted location. Mail can only be forwarded to a U.S. address. Mail cannot be forwarded overseas. Designate someone to inform you of important letters.

  2. Inform Housing (fraternity, sorority, residential services, landlord) that you will be studying abroad and make whatever arrangements are necessary.

  3. Make arrangements to cancel, suspend or make payments for paying ongoing services in the US (e.g. utilities, cell phone, etc).

  4. Enroll in electronic statements or bill-paying services that will allow you to check account balances or pay credit card bills online.
