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.

The University of New Haven’s latest Employment Outcomes Survey, which provides data on the post-graduation achievements of alumni from the Class of 2017, finds that more than 94 percent of undergraduates are employed full or part time in a position related to their major, continuing their education, in active military service, or engaged in a post-graduate volunteer opportunity.

As an undergraduate, Keelin Herbst ’17, the president of the University of New Haven's Class of 2017, completed a double major in national security and legal studies, worked in the University’s Center for Analytics, and interned in the United States Attorney’s Office in New Haven. She also served as president of her class and graduated from the honors program, and she is now pursuing a law degree at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School.
"I attribute my success at the University – and the success I hope to someday achieve – to the people who saw the potential in me I did not know existed," says Herbst, who a few months ago was named managing editor of the George Mason University Civil Rights Law Journal.
Herbst is one of the many success stories of the University’s Class of 2017 as captured in the newest Employment Outcomes Survey, which revealed that less than a year after graduating, more than 94 percent of the graduates who received a bachelor’s degree are employed full or part time in a position related to their major, continuing their education, in active military service, or engaged in a post-graduate volunteer opportunity.

Using online surveys, research, and phone calls, the Career Development Center determined the 94 percent career outcomes rate for the Class of 2017. The career outcomes rate for the Class of 2017 is higher than average rate of New England schools and private colleges nationally.
The career outcomes rate for graduate students in the Class of 2017 is above 92 percent, with more than 85 percent employed full-time in their field.
"The strong career and advanced education outcomes are a product of the career and professional development culture that exists at the University," said Matt Caporale, executive director of the Career Development Center. "Career development is not just an office. It is a philosophy that guides how we operate. All across campus, faculty, staff, alumni, and the Career Development Center are engaging students in hands-on learning activities, having career conversations, and working together to create an ecosystem that supports students, from day one, in their career development."
