Our teams are currently working a hybrid schedule. We continue to receive mail from USPS, interoffice/campus mail, and also receive deliveries from UPS and FedEx in secure mailboxes at the front and back entrances of W98. The RSO recommends that checks be mailed via USPS directly to their lockbox services at:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
PO Box 412926
Boston, MA 02241-2926
