Summer Building Hours

West Virginia University has updated its summer hours of operation for academic buildings on the Downtown and Evansdale campuses.

Some academic buildings limit the hours they are open without key or swipe card access. Faculty, staff, and students with keys or card access still will be able to enter and exit these buildings during non-operational hours; however, the exterior doors will be locked during off-hours.

Faculty, staff, and students should reference the Physical Access Management Standard policy for more information and contact their building supervisor if they require after-hours access to an academic building.
