Forward Niagara - Fall Restart: With the start of the fall semester less than two months away, we will be sharing the health and safety procedures that will be implemented starting in August.

Check your NU email or learn more on our FAQ page: https://www.niagara.edu/coronavirus-faq/

Niagara University’s restart task force has been working over the past several months to develop a plan to safely welcome students, faculty, staff, and administration back to campus this August. The plan, “Forward Niagara,” addresses several areas in regard to reopening, including health and safety, student life, and academics, and follows the best guidance available from elected officials and health organizations at the federal, state/province, and local levels. It also allows for flexibility to quickly adjust procedures as we learn more about the coronavirus. For more information, visit

Niagara University Donates Much-Needed Supplies to Area Hospitals What initially appeared to be a mistake might actually have been a happy accident, as an order of personal protective equipment, initially intended to be used by Niagara University nursing students, is now being donated to the places that need them most —area hospitals and nursing homes.
