Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
Eastern Maine Community College was unchanged from 3 to 3 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 Eastern Maine Community College held level. The total is unchanged, but the mix behind it is not. Rising: Fondling (0 to 3). Falling over the same period: Rape (3 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 Eastern Maine Community College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Rape and Fondling. Rape accounts for most of them.
The remaining 9 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Burglary and Incest. 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 Eastern Maine Community College sits on price and outcomes
At $8,928, Eastern Maine Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 23% among 31 Maine colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,510.

- average net price

- Maine median
- 3.6×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $4,541
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $7,818 for families reporting under $30,000 against $12,359 above $110,000, a difference of $4,541. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $8,928 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $40,444 - about 4.5 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 33% 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.
