Elon Property Management - Mail handling (for students) at Elon.
We just discovered that when postal mail arrives at Elon, it takes up to 5 days for the student to be notified of its arrival. Not acceptable.
Let me tell you why. We sent (from Pittsburgh) a "time sensitive" document to our daughter allowing 2 weeks for the letter to arrive at Elon. We definitely planned ahead. The letter arrived at Elon on December 7.
Our daughter checked many times for the said letter but no luck. On December 11, our very worried daughter told me she had not received the document in the mail, so I rushed the next day (Dec. 12) to have the document re-issued by the originator, and I sent it "OVERNIGHT" via Priority Mail Express to her campus box at Elon (and paid $22.95 to rush it). The new document was guaranteed to arrive the next day (12/13) around 3:00-3:30 pm.
On 12/12, our daughter received an email from Elon "Mail Services" notifying her of mail that had arrived and was ready for pick up. She went to her box and found the original letter. By the way, the email she received clearly shows that said letter arrived at Mail Services on December 7! It took 5 days for her to be notified of the arrival of her document!
