ÂÌñÉç

Basic Format

Note that the order of the address lines is important:

• ÂÌñÉç's address must include a post office box number and zip plus four. If you must also include your office's building and room number, abbreviate it in parentheses immediately after your office's name:

Example: Office of Creative Services (AD-141)
ÂÌñÉç
PO Box 6000 
ÂÌñÉç, NY, 13902-6000

• Items in addresses should be listed in the following order:

Name, Title
College
Department
Institution
Street or Building, Room or Suite
City, State, Zip + Four

• Campus addresses should begin with the name of the office or department, or ÂÌñÉç if there is no office or department name. In any case, the campus box number should immediately precede the city. Note the use of the zip + four, which includes the box number.
