Sending materials using USPS Delivery Confirmation... and no one signed for it.

<p>Quick question, guys. I'm doing the art supplement so I sent everything in by the deadline. However, I sent one of my two art supplements in during Thanksgiving week and used delivery confirmation. I think there was signature confirmation or something included, but since it was Thanksgiving no one was there to sign for it and the USPS kept it. They left a note to Stanford telling them to pick it up. </p>

<p>2 questions: would Stanford actually bother going to the post office to pick it up? Also, does USPS "try again" after failure to delivery the first time?</p>

<p>Sorry if I'm being too general or if it's a stupid question. Since Stanford doesn't track supplementary materials I can't check on the status of whether or not it was "received".</p>

<p>they say not to use anything that requires a signature

<p>don’t know if they would bother.
but you can try to call even though they say not to.</p>

<p>Actually, I don’t find a reference to anything of that sort on the site, but I might just not be looking hard enough. Care to send me a link?</p>

<p>At any rate, USPS tried again on Monday according to their online tracking system, and Stanford signed for it.</p>

<p>Oh goodness…you’re scaring me…I sent my supplement the Monday of the week of Thanksgiving through USPS…it was in a 9x12 envelope…I hope it got there because I didn’t purchase delivery confirmation!</p>
