<p>Okay, so the UCLA HAO website our mailing address is for Rieber Hall is...</p>

<p>Rieber Court/Saxon Suites, Box #_____
310 De Neve Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90024-1316</p>

<p>However, when I went to Washington Mutual to try to get them to change my address, they said it didn't recognize. Is this the correctly formatted postal friendly version of our address? Or am I missing something?</p>

<p>Right now my mail is going to be sent to me, but at 310 De Neve Dr., which I imagine may become a potential problem, because even if my box is mentioned, they won't know which hall or building to deliver to. I'm confuzzled here.</p>

<p>did you by any chance include the slash in there?</p>

<p>you should put either Rieber Court or Saxon Suites on the change of address form and not Rieber/Saxon. You don't live in both places.</p>

3

<p>can you just put your own dorm or do you have to put all the buildings?</p>

<p>for example:</p>

<p>Rieber Court/Saxon Suites, Box #_____
310 De Neve Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90024-1316</p>

<p>vs.</p>

<p>Rieber Court, Box #_____
310 De Neve Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90024-1316</p>

<p>i would say its best to put your specific building (ie Rieber Hall, Rieber Vista, et al) instead of just "Rieber Court".</p>

<p>last year i addressed all my mail/packages to:</p>

<p>310 De Neve Dr, Rm# RV812B
Los Angeles, CA 90024</p>

<p>but i think it would be better for this year to put the actual hall in the address to minimize confusion since theres 3 Riebers.</p>

5

<p>if the box number is really your room number...do you share a box with your roommates?</p>

6

<p>yes you do</p>

7

<p>I think it's a problem with Washington Mutual. They said they couldn't add a second address line unless it was an actual street. And I did try putting only Rieber Court or just Rieber Hall. Hmm..</p>

8

<p>have you tried doing it online? i just logged into my WaMu online banking and went to the change address section. theres definitely a second address line.</p>

<p>don't worry about addresses... the day (or day after) you move in, you get this little slip of paper that tells you exactly how to write your address. Mine for example is:</p>

<p>Your Full Name, HS (for hedrick summit) rm #
250 De Neve Dr.
Los Angeles, CA 90024
Mailbox# 4582</p>

<p>and yeah.. the mailbox# has nothing to do with your room #</p>

10

<p>I think you get the paper along with the keys when you check-in.</p>

11

<p>Not sure how big the mailboxes are, but are you able to buy big items like speakers and have it mailed to you?</p>

12

<p>There's going to be a mail room near the front desk where you can sign for and pick up packages.</p>

13

<p>the box is only for letters/magazines. anything that doesnt fit you can pick up at the mail room window (after 3pm or something like that).</p>
