Meal Plans  

All full-time students are required to have a meal plan.   

Learn more about dining on campus and view instructions on how to change a meal plan on the dining pages of our website.  Step-by-step instructions for how to change your meal plan can be found under the Dining FAQ: "Can I change or update my dining plan?"  All meal plan changes must be made by the last day of the add/drop registration period which is Friday, August 29 for undergraduate and graduate students.  

Mail Center

We hope this message finds you well. As we continue to enhance our campus services, we would like to inform you of some important protocols regarding package deliveries. Please read the following guidelines carefully to ensure smooth and efficient handling of your mail and packages: 

• Unified Address for All Deliveries: All mail and packages should be addressed to 275 Mount Carmel Avenue, Hamden, regardless of your office, residence hall, or housing location. Please do not use 305 Sherman Avenue for mail or package deliveries.

• Use Your Official Name: Ensure that the name on your mail or packages matches the name you used with Admissions at the time of your application. Unless you have updated your name with the Registrar’s Office, this is the only name Mail Services recognizes. Avoid using nicknames, screen names or pet names.

• Include Your Mail Services Code (MSC): Always include your uniquely assigned Mail Services Code (MSC) on each envelope and package. This code helps us accurately identify the recipient, especially for students with similar names.

• Plan for Weekends and Holidays: Mail Services is closed on weekends and university holidays. Please plan your deliveries accordingly, as locating packages delivered during these times can be challenging if they are not delivered to Mail Services on the Mount Carmel campus.

• Official Receiving Location: The Mail Services office on the Mount Carmel campus is the designated receiving location for all mail and packages. The locker locations in the student centers are not equipped or staffed to handle deliveries, particularly outside their operating hours.

• Prompt Package Pickup: Please heed Mail Services delivery notifications and pick up your mail and packages promptly to avoid any inconvenience.

• Third-party delivery companies: We strongly encourage you to use companies that have trusted experience and knowledge of Quinnipiac delivery protocols (FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, OnTrac and Amazon). Others have not been successful in following our hours of operation and location for mail delivery. This could lead to loss of a package.

• Students should not meet drivers for pick-ups: There have been cases where delivery drivers have not been consistent in their delivery of packages. Avoid non-insured companies that cannot be verified for delivery. Additionally, these companies are not allowed on campus for deliveries.

Thank you for your attention to these guidelines. By following these protocols, you will help ensure that all deliveries are handled efficiently and securely. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mail Services.

One Stop Office (Student Administrative Services)

The One Stop office is eagerly anticipating the return of our students this fall.  We have several important reminders for all students and their proxies.      

Paying for College: Set Up Your Financing Plan ASAP   

• All students registered for the fall term should see their charges in Self-Service. If you have not already, please ensure that your balance is covered. The Resolve a Balance Due page of our website can assist with this task.  

• Please ensure that all past due balances are covered prior to move-in. This will allow for a smooth transition on move-in day.    

• Questions about your bill? Contact One Stop 

• Undergraduate full-time students who have less than 12 credits should ensure they are fully registered or submit the Change of Status Form to switch from a full-time to part-time student.  We highly recommend that you contact Financial Aid to understand the implications of this change prior to making the request. 

• Undergraduate part-time students who have full-time courseloads will have their status switched to full-time after the end of the add/drop registration period.  This may result in a change to your invoice. 

• We encourage all students to check their accounts in Self-Service once a month. 

• If any students are due refunds, these will be processed after the add/drop registration period.
