Seattle Pacific University was on lockdown Saturday night after receiving a bomb threat.
The lockdown was lifted at 8:36 p.m. local time.
No students were reported injured or missing.
The bomb threat was called in over the phone. Royal Brougham Pavillion, the university's gym, was evacuated.
SPU MODE Fashion Group, an on-campus club, was hosting a fashion show in the gym at the time.
The club says it is unsure if and when it will reschedule the annual event.
