Student Organization Mail & Offices
All student organizations normally have individual mailboxes on Level 3 of Price Center East. UCAB is responsible for allocating space to registered student organizations. Email accounts are a service of UCSD's Educational Technology Services (ETS).
Format for on-campus mail:
- Organization name, MC 0078
Format for off-campus mail:
- Organization name, MC 0078
University of California, San Diego
9500 Gilman Drive
La Jolla, CA 92093-0078
Mailbox Use:
- Student organizations no longer have individual mailboxes; mailboxes are now alphabetized. Mailboxes are managed by the CSI Front Desk, located at the former AS Graphic Studio (306) - Price Center East, Level 3. Principal Members must now check in at the CSI Front Desk to access student org mail.
- Center for Student Involvement mailboxes are for inter-campus and U.S. first and third class mail. Valuable materials and packages, registered letters, and any other mail that requires a signature should not be sent to the Center for Student Involvement and instead should be mailed to the home of a selected principal member.
Mail Pickup:
- Student Organization Principal Members will receive an email from csifrontdesk@ucsd.edu stating that there is mail to pick up for their student organization.
- Any Principal Member may come to the CSI Front Desk during business hours to claim their mail. Please make sure to bring an ID to pick up mail.
- After each quarterly deadline, unclaimed items are returned to the sender via the Triton Trove or discarded at the discretion of the person distributing the mail. Please arrange to have your mail claimed as soon as possible.
Deadlines to Collect Mail:
- For mail received in Fall Quarter – Friday, December 12, 2025
- For mail received in Winter Quarter – Friday, March 20, 2026
- For mail received in Spring Quarter – Friday, June 12, 2026
Office and storage space
Space Management
Office and storage spaces are managed by the University Centers Advisory Board (UCAB).
Location
Office and storage spaces are normally available in Price Center and the Student Center.
Types of spaces available
- Lockable offices (Price Center and Student Centers): Most of the office space is shared, with 2 or more organizations per office
- Lateral storage units (rectangular file cabinets, 16" x 36", Price Center only)
How to apply
To apply for space or to renew an application, new and current student organizations must have a principal member fill out the UCAB Application for Space.
UCAB assigns spaces during spring quarter for the following academic year. Check the UCAB website for a list of assigned spaces. Any unallocated space, or any space that becomes available during the academic year, will be allocated by a rank-ordered waiting list, or if there is no such list, space will be assigned on a first come, first-served basis.
