In case of inclement weather, the quickest ways to find out if CUA is closed or delayed is to check the CUA website at www.cua.edu or to call the University’s main number — 202-319-5000. The information is available through those two sources by 6 a.m. on days when weather conditions are extremely poor. In addition, the information is posted to the CUA Facebook and Twitter accounts. CUA also contacts all local TV outlets and major radio stations.

If CUA is only delayed, the LEARN workshop will start at the new time. If you have any questions please contact Stephanie Ascher at Stephanie@fbcinc.com.
