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.

College is a significant investment. If you let it get into your head, it can cause a variety of emotions. Student Financial Wellness Peer Educator Simon Romero ’24 suggests college students use what he calls three simple but effective ways to manage money.
October 20, 2022
The University of New Haven has created a team of Student Financial Wellness Peer Educators to create programs and resources that help students manage their money and put them on a path to financial success. Periodically, they will write blog entries about various topics related to financial wellness. In this post, Simon Romero ’24, an accounting major, shares three tips for college students to manage their money.
Making a budget is not necessarily hard, but a budget will only be as good as the information you put into it. iGrad has budgeting tools and other resources that can help you start. There are also apps that can make it easy to budget and track your spending such as Mint, Good Budget, Personal Capital, or even a tool provided by your bank. A budget will work if you put in the effort and know about your needs vs wants and how you spend your money.
Saving can be hard, but it does not mean it's impossible. Starting small is the best way to approach it. Within your budget, include a savings plan by setting aside money toward your savings goal. You should try to save at least 20 percent of your income and have emergency savings. The University of New Haven 2021 Student Financial Wellness Survey found that 48 percent of students would have trouble coming up with $500 dollars in cash or in credit in case of an emergency. Some tips to help you save better are to pay yourself first and set smart goals.
Investing in learning more about money will give you power over your finances. Here are some steps to gain more knowledge.
So, take control of your money, and follow us on Instagram @unewhavenfinwell to stay informed on the latest information and updates. You can also find us in myCharger in Student Resources under Financial Wellness.
