The law school is rarely closed for weather or other emergencies.ÌýThis is especially so during exams.ÌýHowever, should circumstances make it necessary to close the School or delay the opening of School, a message will be broadcast using the NOVA Alert system. Please note that students must register for the NOVA Alert System on NOVASIS. If possible the message will also be posted on theÌýLaw School homepageÌýunder News and Events. In addition, the Law School has an Emergency Cancellation Line: 610-519-7744. This is a listen-only number and will carry details regarding closing, late opening, early closing and library access. Please do not call the main number to obtain the closing information available on the Emergency Cancellation Line.

We will make every effort to administer exams as scheduled, even if it is with a skeleton staff (that may mean that things take a little longer, but we will do our best). However, if the area around the building cannot be made safe, we cannot open. If there is any question about whether we will be open, please consult the sources listed above.

If we are open, but you determine that it is not safe for you to travel from where you are, you must contact the Registrar’s Office directly and immediately, and in no case later than the time when the exam is scheduled to begin. Call 610-519-7002 or 610-519-7017 and leave a message, orÌýsend an e-mail to the registrar.ÌýDo not call these numbers or e-mail that address merely to check on whether we are open or not.ÌýUse these numbersÌýonlyÌýto report that you cannot safely travel to the law school. Please also be aware that the Registrar’s staff will be preparing to start exams and may not be available to answer the phone. Leave a message. It should go without saying that you should only seek to be excused if you are genuinely convinced that it would be unsafe to travel. Should we be forced to close or should you be unable to make your scheduled exam because of weather or other emergency, make-ups will be scheduled for the next available day.
