The Southern Miss Post Office is located in the Thad Cochran Center, lower level.
Regular service window hours are Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Currently, the Southern Miss Post Office accepts cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard and debit cards for postal transactions. Customers who purchase a USPS Money Order must pay with cash.
$65 fee covers fall, spring and summer semesters; $40 fee covers spring and summer semesters, and the $15 fee is for the summer semester only. These charges are applied to the students business office account. Post Office box rental fees are nonrefundable.
The post office box rental fee is assessed to all students living in university-controlled housing. Students who live off-campus have the option of renting a campus post office box at the same rate if they so desire.
Before the end of the spring semester students who plan to sit out the summer semester
must visit the Southern Miss Post Office and complete a Temporary Official Change
of Address Form. This action reserves your mailbox for the fall semester and allows
the Southern Miss Post Office to forward your mail during the summer break.
