The University will make every effort to operate during periods of inclement weather. However, if it becomes necessary to close, both day and evening classes will be canceled unless specifically stated otherwise. When appropriate the University will utilize the delayed opening procedure with the University opening at 10:00 a.m., and classes beginning at the regularly scheduled times thereafter.

Media outlets authorized to announce the University's decision to close or delay its opening are radio stations: WBZ (1030 AM), WRKO (680 AM), WFNX (101.7 FM), television stations: WBZ-TV 4, WCVB-TV 5, WHDH-TV 7, WLVI-TV 56, and on WBUR@s (90.9 FM) web site at www.wbur.org. Deaf and hard-of-hearing members of the University community may obtain information on school cancellations by dialing the MCI Relay Service toll free at 800.439.2370. The Relay Service will then dial into the University's main number, 617.373.2000, for the recorded message.

In addition, in the event that evening classes are canceled, the Graduate School will make every effort to post a notice on our home page.
