How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Confirm which office you need

    Address your letter to the specific office or person you need — for example "Office of Admissions", the registrar, a department, or a student's name and residence. An attention line keeps it from sitting in a general mailroom.

  2. 2

    Prepare your letter or documents

    Include any student or applicant ID, application or reference number, and your return address so the office can respond. For official transcripts or forms, follow the school's stated format and enclose anything they ask for.

  3. 3

    Address it correctly

    First line: University of Waterloo. Then the street: 200 University Avenue West. Then the city line: Waterloo ON N2L 3G1. Double-check the office address above against the school's contact page for anything deadline-driven.

Common questions

What is the University of Waterloo's mailing address?

University of Waterloo, 200 University Avenue West, Waterloo, ON N2L 3G1. General correspondence to the university. Add an attention line for a specific office such as the Registrar’s Office or Admissions. Confirm the office address on the University of Waterloo's official contact page before anything deadline-driven — admissions and registrar offices sometimes use a different PO box.

Where do I mail admissions or application documents to the University of Waterloo?

Send them to the admissions office. Use the address above and add an attention line such as "Office of Admissions". Include your applicant ID or Common App / application number, and mail well ahead of the deadline — the postmark or receipt date is what counts.

How do I send an official transcript to the University of Waterloo?

Official transcripts usually go to the admissions or registrar office in a sealed envelope from your prior school. Address it to the University of Waterloo at the office above (or the registrar, if given), and check whether the University of Waterloo also accepts secure electronic transcripts — many do.

Can I mail a letter to a student living at the University of Waterloo?

Yes, but a student in residence has their own campus mailbox address (residence hall + room or mailbox number), which is not the same as the office address above. Ask the student for their exact residence mailing address; the school's housing or mail-services page also explains its format.

Will someone read my letter or write back?

University offices route incoming mail to the right team, so a correctly addressed letter does get handled — but a personal reply isn't guaranteed. Including your return address, an ID or reference number, and a clear request gives you the best chance of a response.

Write or upload your letter to PostPal with the address prefilled. We print it, add your return address, and mail it for you — no printer, stamps, or post office trip needed.
