The Ohio Union assesses a drayage charge that is covered by the registration fee for this event.  Any packages received earlier than October 10 may be assessed additional charges; if that happens the Pre-Law Services Program Director will reach out to discuss the additional cost.  All materials will be delivered to the Ohio Union the morning of the event and placed at your school's/company's table in the Grand Ballroom.

We recommend not to ship anything "Next Day Guaranteed (by any time or any shipper)".  Due to the sheer volume of deliveries to all of campus, our experience is that we may not receive it by the "guaranteed" time.

For any additional shipping questions, please contact the Shipping and Receiving Manager, Adrienne Gladish, at 614-247-7467 or gladish.2@osu.edu
