Certified Mail

Certified Mail provides the sender with a “proof of mailing date”.

Certified Receipt Return Receipt

• This form contains a green and white sticker

that includes a barcode, which will allow you to

track your mail through USPS.

• The form also contains a perforated receipt,

which serves as proof that you mailed the item.*

• Write the required information on the form,

including the recipient’s name and address.

• Remove the backing and place the sticker along

the top edge of the envelope you are mailing,

directly to the right of the return address area.

* Since Mail Services is taking your Certified Mail to the Post

Office, please leave the receipt attached to the envelope and

write your name and campus box number somewhere on the

receipt. Mail Services will have the Post Office stamp the

receipt, giving you dated confirmation that it was received by

USPS. Mail Services will then send the stamped Certified

Receipt back to you via Campus Mail.

• Can be used in coordination with a Certified

Receipt.

• Signature Confirmation can be requested by

attaching a Return Receipt to the back of the

envelope and checking off the box that says

“Return Receipt for Merchandise”.

• The Return Receipt will be mailed back to the

sender with the recipient’s signature, confirming

that the mail piece was delivered. It will also

show when the driver attempted to deliver it.

• The sender now has proof of a mailing date

from the Certified Receipt and proof of delivery

from the Return Receipt Form.

• Customers have the option to choose Certified

or Certified with Return Receipt. There is a fee

for each service.
