Anonymous asked: is the mailing address that they gave us in the packet with the parking passes the address that we use when something is mailed to us? exactly as it is or do we add something to it?

It should be something like:

100 Aberdeen Drive.
Mailbox 221
Riverside, CA 92507

The above is an example of A-I but your mailing address is essentially the street address and your mailbox #. All that information you should have received on move-in day.

Im planning to buy a laptop case online.. can i have it shipped to my ucr mailing address? Im just worried that it won’t fit inside the little cubby for your mail? or do they deliver it to your actual room?

Yes! You can still receive packages but they will be received by your particular RSO. So if you know you ordered something keep checking your mailbox- the office will usually give you a notice that there’s a package waiting for you at the RSO.

How do I do laundry in the dorms? Do I have to use bearbucks to do laundry?

Bearbucks! Luckily you don’t have to go through the hassle of scavenging for quarters to do laundry. It is so much harder than it sounds.

im a incoming freshmen, and i was just worried i might get lost on the first day of class. do you know if anyone will be abe to help me find my classes? D: like the university village for the business class? Dx thank you!

Anyone. Literally, just ask anyone (well maybe not a freshman, sorry freshmen!) and you should be directed to the correct area. Everyone is super friendly so don’t hesitate to ask a fellow Highlander for directions. Otherwise there are also typically Help Desks on the first week of school provided by Student Life that you can ask.

Hi! Do you know if we’re allowed to take pictures of the artists performing at the Block Party? Many concert venues don’t allow pictures and videos but I was wondering if we could at the Block Party since it’s informal. Sorry for the bother!

Yes, you are allowed to take pictures at the event but there is a restriction against SLR’s or any camera with a removable lens if I remember correctly. Basically, try to avoid acting like paparazzi- or like that photographer from the Spice Girls movie.

That’s so not fetch.

Are the immunization forms required for someone who isn’t going to be using the campus insurance? And if so, when are they due?

Yes, it is still required, regardless of the insurance. Have them in as soon as possible! Speak to the Campus Health Office at 951.827.3031 for more information.
