Bulk Mail is mail presorted to receive reduced postage rates. As a university, we qualify for the non-profit standard rate for our bulk mailings. This reduced rate is for mailings containing 200 or more pieces. The contents of bulk mailings may not include: personal letters, bills or invoices, account statements or contracts. All pieces must be identical in content, weight and size. Addresses must be printed in ascending zip code order to allow us to sort the mail properly. A zip code list (the zip codes and number of pieces going to each zip code) is extremely beneficial for mailings with 1,000 or more pieces. We currently hand sort the mail as opposed to automated sorting. Having a zip code list to refer to cuts down on our sorting time allowing us to get the mailing processed and sent out as quickly as possible. Bulk mailings without a zip code list included will delay the processing of your mail as well as other mailings we have at that time. Foreign addresses should be excluded from the mailing. Please keep in mind that we will apply your labels and insert your bulk mailings for you at no cost!
