UNIVERSITY PARI, Pa. — Starting July 1, all Penn State campuses will utilize FedEx as their preferred shipping partner for all ground and express shipping. Joining the FedEx Educational Program allows Penn State access to greater savings for shipping services. 

There are two ways for the Multimedia and Print Center (MPC) to receive your packages. After visiting the MPC website and filling out the shipment form, packages can be left in your building's mail room with a completed form, and an MPC delivery driver will pick them up when making regular deliveries. Completed forms and packages can also be brought to Mail Services within the Hostetter Business Services Building on the University Park campus, specifically the loading dock at the rear of the building. Packages must be dropped off at the Services Road location by 4 p.m. Monday through Friday to ensure daily pickup. 

FedEx is coordinating with Commonwealth Campuses on their ground and express shipping needs. A solution to accommodate parcel shipping needs for remote workers and individuals on University travel is being developed. Additional information on procedures and instructions will be coming soon. 

For assistance with special shipping arrangements, departmental staff assistants should be contacted. For additional questions, contact Tami Feese at tjf5778@psu.edu
