Due to the expected winter storm, the University will close campus Monday, February 23. We expect to resume normal operations on Tuesday morning. If conditions change, we will share updates promptly.
Campus Services During the Closure
While most in-person activities will pause, essential services will remain available. Public Safety and Facilities will be on campus throughout the storm, and the following services are expected to remain open or staffed:
• Residence Halls (RDs/RAs on duty)
• Dining
• Computer Labs
• Facilities/Housekeeping
• Health Services (TBD by Director)
Students living on campus should expect regular support from Residence Life and Public Safety.
Classes and Work During the Closure
Students
All offices and in-person activities are canceled for the day. In-person classes are canceled but may be held remotely at the discretion of faculty. Faculty will communicate directly, so please check your email and course site for updates.
Classes that are already scheduled to be fully remote will continue as usual unless otherwise communicated by your instructor.
Staff
Staff who are able to work remotely should coordinate with supervisors as appropriate. Staff whose work requires on-campus presence should follow supervisor guidance.
Staying Informed
The University’s Inclement Weather Policy is available on the WNE website via the homepage banner. We will communicate any changes or reopening details through WNE Alert, email, and the University website.
Thank you for your cooperation and flexibility as we work to keep our community safe during the storm.

We will continue to review applications and admit students on a space-available basis. Admission decisions are typically released within one to two weeks of your application being complete. Prospective students should apply as early as possible in relation to the anticipated start date.
