The University has issued an emergency declaration, a proactive measure that will give the University more flexibility in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Declaration of University State of Emergency

The declaration is a governmental procedural action that will allow UAH:

  • Exemption from some purchasing regulations
  • Formally notify the state of Alabama and the federal government of the current emergency situation for the campus
  • Claim the university’s share of any state or federal aid that may be available during or after this event
