Monmouth University Emergency Notification System

In an effort to keep all members of the Monmouth University community apprised of the latest school closings and important emergency information, community members are required to visit notify.monmouth.edu and register for Monmouth University Emergency Notification System. This service allows the University to send emergency alerts to students, faculty, and staff. You can receive these alerts on your mobile and home telephones. Communication during crisis situations is an important part of the University’s response to emergency situations. It is key to the health and safety of the campus community that they be notified of important information in as timely a manner as possible. It is also important to note that our communication system may be redundant, as any one system may be compromised due to weather, malicious intent, or normal wear and tear.

Communication between police dispatch, the campus community, and first responders is a key to the successful resolution of any incident or emergency on or near the campus. We ask that you review and familiarize yourself with these systems. Please also note the important requirement to sign up for Monmouth University Emergency Notification System, since this is our primary emergency notification resource.

It is only with knowledge of the emergency communication system that you can take advantage of it in time of need.
