To request shipment, select “University of Washington – Tacoma Campus” and “International Student Services” as the sender address.
You will be required to create a username and password to set up an account.

Use your UW student ID number if possible; if you do not yet have a UW student number, use 12345. Please pay close attention to the information submitted, as errors in the credit card information or submitting incorrect or incomplete address information will result in a mailing delay.
