Students

All undergraduate students are assigned a campus post office box, which serves as their official local address. This applies to students who reside off campus as well as those who live on campus.

Please check you boxes on a regular basis.  Important information concerning classes, financial aid, student accounts, and campus events is delivered daily.  You may even have a note from home!

If you wish to send mail to another student on campus, you do not need a stamp.  Just put a name and their S.U. Box number on the envelope.

For an address change:

  • Go to the Samford Portal
  • Log in with user ID and Password
