In-Person Meetings for Classes on Monday, January 26, 2026 are Cancelled; Online/remote classes to be held as determined by Faculty.

Public Safety is tracking a significant snowfall that will be arriving in our area late Sunday morning (Jan. 25). It will snow heavily throughout the day and evening eventually tapering off Monday (Jan. 26) with 10-14 inches expected statewide. A sleet and freezing rain mix is also possible along the shore. Temperatures will be in the teens and twenties.

Due to this significant winter storm and the extensive campus clean-up operations that will need to take place, all in-person day and evening classes scheduled for Monday, January 26, 2026 have been cancelled. All scheduled in-person classes will transition to being held online or remotely. Additional information on the virtual format for each class will be provided by your instructor.

Faculty have been asked to prepare for Online or Remote sessions in the event of in-person meeting cancellations. These options will be determined by the Faculty member and all questions should be directed to the Faculty teaching each course section. Faculty also have been asked to be very understanding and accommodating of the individual situations of their students who may have difficulty managing these alternative online or remote class meetings on short notice.

Please note that only essential employees, as previously determined by their respective department leaders, should report to campus. All other employees should fulfill the requirements of their role remotely.

Campus operations for residential students, unless otherwise noted, will operate as scheduled, though hours may be modified or changed based on the conditions. Separate messages will be sent from the Peterson Library, the Beckerman Recreation Center, and Dining Services regarding any changes to their normal hours of operation. The Bergami Center for Science, Technology, and Innovation will remain open for residential students to use for study space and to participate in online classes.

Off-campus students that live in the City of West Haven should abide by the city’s parking ban during inclement weather to avoid having their vehicle tagged and towed. Please check the City of West Haven’s website for further information on their snow parking ban.

Faculty-Led Study Abroad Programs

Students who are looking for a program that is not a full semester long can choose to participate in one of our faculty-led or Embedded Programs. Small groups of students will travel with their faculty and explore the culture and country through their coursework. Faculty-led programs usually occur in the Summer or Winter Intersession and are separate from the regular cost of annual tuition. Embedded courses have a classroom component and a travel component that is included in the cost of tuition for that course. These programs have a separate (E) distinction in their program names.

Will a COVID-19 vaccination be required for Summer 2023? (Updated on 3/22/23)

COVID-19 Vaccine Policy for Summer 2023 and Beyond

The University of New Haven continues to be committed to offering COVID-19 conscious programming, and we believe that being up to date on the COVID-19 vaccine and boosters will help safeguard the health and wellness of the university’s community. We have developed our policies with the health and safety of not only students, but the communities in which we operate as our top priority.

After careful consideration, starting with programs beginning on or after May 10, 2023, the University of New Haven will strongly recommend all participants be up to date on the COVID-19 vaccine and recommended booster dose(s) prior to the start of their program. We will only require participants to be up to date in locations where enforced by local governments or local partner institutions.

The University of New Haven will continue to monitor the COVID-19 landscape around the globe. Should circumstances change, we reserve the right to reinstate a COVID-19 vaccine mandate at any time. We will be sure to communicate any major policy changes as quickly as possible. To see our most up to date COVID-19 policies and guidance, please review the COVID Guidelines 2023 here (linked to Prato webpage for Prato programs and general COVID pages for non-Prato programs).

The University of New Haven also strongly recommend that all students bring their CDC cards to best ensure their ability to fully participate in all program activities.
