Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
Community College of Rhode Island decreased from 4 to 2 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 Community College of Rhode Island fell from 4 to 2 (-50%). The decrease shows up in Aggravated Assault (2 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 Community College of Rhode Island
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Rape, Aggravated Assault and Motor Vehicle Theft.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Fondling, Incest and Murder / Non-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 Community College of Rhode Island sits on price and outcomes

- Rhode Island median
- 3.1×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $1,939
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $6,213 for families reporting under $30,000 against $8,152 above $110,000, a difference of $1,939. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $6,513 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $33,476 - about 5.1 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 26% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
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.
