WKU Postal Services


The WKU Postal Service provides collection and distribution of WKU department mail, delivery of incoming US mail and processing of outgoing US mail.

Department mail is defined as official University business correspondence issued from a University department to be delivered to other University departments.  To provide proper delivery, department mail requires a full name and a "departmental name and building name." WE SORT STRICTLY BY DEPARTMENTS. It's crucial that there is a department name on the mail pieces for prompt delivery. We do not sort by office number or individual names.

Postal Services is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The telephone extension is 4262. Our address is: 399 University Dr. Bowling Green, KY 42101. We are in the Service and Supply building at the corner of Russellville Rd. and University Blvd. To enter, walk down the sidewalk near the main entrance and enter the red door. Enter the first door and stop at the customer service desk.

Mail delivery and pickup dates vary by department. Click HERE to see your departmental delivery and pick up day.

We do NOT deliver student mail. All carriers for student mail should deliver directly to the residence halls.

Passport Services and mail box rentals are located on the ground floor of Downing Student Union. WKU Passport Services is open Monday through Friday from 7:45 AM to 4:30 PM to assist with any questions regarding the passport process. Appointments are scheduled between 8:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The telephone extension is 4658. Click HERE for more information on Passport Services.
