Because your safety is so important to us, we strictly enforce the security policies we have established. Specific information regarding policies and procedures for the residence halls can be found in the Gwynedd Mercy University Student Handbook and the Guide to Residence Life (PDF).
In addition to abiding by our safety policies, we also require all students to participate in our campus alert system, Omnilert, which provides email, phone and text message instructions in the event of a campus emergency or weather-related closing. Sign up for the University’s Emergency Alert system by clicking the
