As we near the end of another year please don’t forget to take care of your campus mailbox. This includes checking it for any mail, returning your lock and filing out the survey for what you would like us to do with your mail after this semester.

Two weeks after the spring semester ends (on May 23, 2025) we will close all student campus boxes unless they responded to the End of Year survey. If you would like your mail forwarded or would like to keep your mailbox open for the summer, please fill out this survey
(https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSen8Hb9X2VU3VbQWqr9sPleUUk0pJROmx7iM6sr-lfY4vjgMw/viewform?usp=sharing).

Before the fall semester starts we will reassign campus boxes to all residential students. Without completing the survey, it will most likely be a different number.

We are only able to forward 1st Class USPS mail. Packages must be looked at case by case. Some USPS will allow forwarding. (Reply to the Augsburg package email and we will look at that package.) Other packages (UPS, FedEx, Amazon, etc.), magazines, non-profit mail and standard mail will not be forwarded. We can also only forward to USA addresses. The forwarding period for the Augsburg Mailroom is two months from when the request is submitted. Afterward any additional mail we receive will be returned to sender.

We request that you contact the people/business sending you mail and update your address with them. Augsburg is classified as a business so you will not be able to do so through the US Post Office itself. Enrolling in online/electronic bills or statements can also be a smart option, it is environmentally friendly, secure and will often save you time (and sometimes money). Asking us to forward your mail does not change your mailing address with the USPS or Augsburg University, just with the Mailroom.

College Possible Minnesota is a long-time Augsburg partner that helps students from low-income backgrounds find the right college, navigate the admissions process, secure financial aid, and stay on track to graduation. In the midst of uncertainty around federal funding, College Possible is asking supporters to contact Congress about the importance of continuing AmeriCorps programs.

Advocacy Request from College Possible:

Individuals can use the link below to access the form to email legislators.

To make a call, you can use the following trusted links to find your congress members’ contact information:
• U.S. House of Representatives: house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative
• U.S. Senate: senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm
• You may also call 202-224-3121 and input your zip code to be forwarded to your member’s office.

Sample phone or email script:

“Hi, my name is XXX, and I’m a supporter of College Possible Minnesota/a former AmeriCorps coach with College Possible Minnesota/I am a College Possible Minnesota student alumni.

I’m calling to urge [Senator/Representative] to stand up for AmeriCorps and ensure its funding and operations remain intact.

AmeriCorps members support programs like College Possible — helping thousands of students each year stay on track to college and changing the lives of both the students and the service members.

This is not a partisan issue — national service brings Americans together and offers a strong return on investment for local communities. I hope [Senator/Representative] will ask the White House to fully support National service and will continue to support the longstanding bipartisan investment in AmeriCorps.

Thank you for your time.”

Contact your senators and representatives to support AmeriCorps.
