MAILROOM
COMMUTERS
The Mailroom and its staff welcome you as a new member of the Lasell community. All new resident students receive a mailbox for letter mail and school notices. If you receive a package, you will be notified via email that it has arrived and it can be picked up in the Mailroom Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. The Lasell College Mailroom is located on the ground floor of Edwards Student Center.
Lasell College is conveniently situated near the Mass Pike, Route 128, and the Riverside and Woodland “T” stations, so commuting to the Lasell campus is an option that some students choose. Once on campus, our commuting students avail themselves of all of the resources and programs that are part of the Lasell experience. Campus clubs and organizations plan their meetings for the “common hours”, scheduled midday on Tuesdays and Thursdays, during which no classes are held. Many of the College’s lectures, campus-wide presentations, and social and recreational programs are purposely timed to take place during those “common hours”. Commuter students can get involved in any of the student organizations and clubs that Lasell has to offer, especially the Long Distance Lasers (commuter club) and may become a Commuter Representative with the Student Government Association. Dining options include Valentine Dining Hall and various retail outlets on campus. Commuter students may purchase one of the three meal plans: Block 25 (25 meals a semester); Block 50 (50 meals a semester); or Block 75 (75 meals a semester). More information can be found in the Dining Services section. All commuting students are guaranteed parking in one of our commuter lots. Additional information about commuter parking can be found in the Campus Police section. Commuter students who take the MBTA can utilize the shuttle service. A van shuttle service is provided to all students seven days a week (excluding break periods) throughout the academic year. The shuttle follows a scheduled route that transports students throughout the campus and to the Riverside T Station, the West Newton business district, and to a local supermarket. The schedule is available online at My.Lasell. Students can track the shuttle and see the next two arrival times at any stop with our Shuttle App.
During your time at Lasell, your mailing address will be: Your Name Lasell College Box # (see My Housing) Newton, MA 02466 Please share this with family and friends to ensure your mail finds its way to you here at Lasell. This address should also be used when packages are being shipped to you. Your school mailbox is NOT a P.O. Box, so be sure that the address only says Box # (see My Housing). You learn about My Housing when you attend Orientation. For more information on the Mailroom and its services, please visit https://my.lasell.edu/mailroom/default.aspx.
