Stanford ZIP and Mail CodesSubmitted by gideon@stanford.edu on Mon, 11/24/2008 - 12:21.Question: How can I mail something to a specific building at Stanford? I don't know what mail codes and ZIP codes to use. Answer: The basic Stanford ZIP code is 94305, and you tack on the Stanford mail code after that. For example, the Law School's mail code is 8610, so you'd list the ZIP as 94305-8610. If you have a SUNet ID, you can see all of the mail codes here. If you don't have a SUNet ID, you'll need someone (like the folks at the Green Library Information Desk) to look them up for you. »
