SNOW POLICY
For the most accurate and up to date information, call the University main snow number @ (610) 519-4505.
Announcements are also posted on www.villanova.edu and made on KYW 1060 AM radio - Villanova is Delaware County #528.
WHEN CLASSES ARE CANCELLED: NO on-campus interviews will be held. Please call the Career Center (610) 519-4061 for messages regarding recruiting and rescheduling. For those staying in nearby hotels, please be sure to leave your telephone number and where you are staying when leaving a message.
WHEN THERE IS A 2 HOUR OPENING DELAY: It is difficult to gain access to the campus because of snow removal prior to 10 a.m. The first on-campus interview will then begin at 10:30 a.m. The interviews scheduled before 10:30am will then be rescheduled for a later time that same day.
WHEN INTERVIEWS ARE IN SESSION AND THE UNIVERSITY ANNOUNCES AN EARLY CLOSING: Students have been advised to access their voice mail frequently to inquire about the status of their interview. If a student lives off-campus and traveling is difficult, we encourage interviews to be rescheduled.
You may want to leave early due to the weather conditions so changes to your schedule will be made as needed. Please keep us informed of your needs.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION
