Why is There More Than One Address?
On the University's computer system, you can have one or more addresses. They are classified as permanent, local, and billing. You can also request a next of kin address which would not be used except in emergencies.

One address can serve all three functions: permanent, local, and billing. You are not required to have multiple addresses. However, if you live in campus housing, your campus address will automatically become your local address. It is important to update your addresses anytime you move and at the end of the spring semester.

To Which Address Does Financial Aid Information Go?
All financial assistance mail goes to the permanent address in summer and the local address during academic year. Enrolled students must sign off on address change requests in the USI Office of the Registrar. Changing your address on your FAFSA or other financial aid forms will not update your official University address.

So...Keep your address(es) up to date with the University's Admission Office before you enroll and the Registrar's Office after you enroll.  You can also use MyUSI to keep your address(es) up to date.
