Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
Brigham Young University-Hawaii decreased from 42 to 40 reported on-campus incidents between the 2023 and 2024 reporting years in the U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey.
This is a change in reported incidents, not a measure of individual safety. Enrollment, reporting practice, and category coverage can affect the count.
See national reporting-year changesWhat changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Brigham Young University-Hawaii fell from 42 to 40 (-5%). The increase shows up in Fondling (4 to 7), Aggravated Assault (1 to 2) and Rape (1 to 2). Falling over the same period: Motor Vehicle Theft (29 to 23) and Statutory Rape (1 to 0).
This describes reported incidents, not crime. Clery counts move with reporting policy, awareness campaigns and how a campus staffs its security authorities, so a rise can reflect better capture of reports and a fall can reflect worse capture. One year of movement at a single campus is not a trend.
What actually gets reported at Brigham Young University-Hawaii
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 6 Clery Act categories here: Motor Vehicle Theft, Fondling, Burglary, Aggravated Assault, Rape and Statutory Rape. Motor Vehicle Theft accounts for most of them.
The remaining 5 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Incest, Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter and Negligent Manslaughter. Under the Clery Act that zero is an affirmative report that nothing in the category occurred, not an absence of data, which is why the table below lists those rows rather than dropping them.
Counts describe incidents reported under the Clery Act for the on-campus geography. Reporting practice varies between institutions, so counts are not a direct measure of relative safety.

Cost context
Where Brigham Young University-Hawaii sits on price and outcomes
At $16,774, Brigham Young University-Hawaii's reported average net price is cheaper than 61% among 18 Hawaii colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $11,856.

- average net price

- Hawaii median
- 4.2×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $10,959
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $11,623, while those above $110,000 record $22,582 - roughly 1.9 times as much. A published average of $16,774 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Six-year median earnings of $39,316 run about 2.3 times the annual net price. The margin is real but narrow, so how many years of price a student actually pays matters a great deal here.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
