Mail & Package Service

University Housing supplies residents with mail services. Each resident gets their own mailbox assignment with a combination or keyed lock. Here they will receive any paper or small parcel mail items. 

Residents can also ship larger packages to campus, these packages are held in the designated package pick up center located in the USC or in OSP. Residents get notified when they receive packages via e-mail to their University e-mail address as well as a text message to the phone number provided during their application process. Letters and prepaid packages can be sent from the University via the University Student Center front desk.

Bull Bucks

Bull Buck$ is a campus-wide declining balance program for USF St. Petersburg students, faculty, and staff. Participants add value to their “account” which is linked to the BULL BUCK$ Card.

Bull Buck$ reduces the need to carry cash on campus and provides an alternative to commercial bank cards. Parents can add value to student accounts online from home which will allow students to use the funds for incidentals on campus at USF St. Petersburg.

In addition, some USF St. Petersburg retail locations offer special discounts for using Bull Buck$. Bull Buck$ is also the method of payment for most copy and print services in our library and lab locations. These funds cannot be used at dining facilities on campus.

Internet

All residential buildings are on the USF wireless network. For an additional fee, wired connections are available in the student room. Contact Campus Computing with questions or concerns about internet within the residence halls.

If you are attempting to activate a wired connection within your room please email, stp-housing@usf.edu, with a picture of the the port, the location, and the number as well as a brief explanation as to why you would like the port activated.
