Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
Erskine College decreased from 1 to 0 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.

Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 37 SC 4-year peers in this comparison, Erskine College is larger than 22% and safer-reporting than 72% - the smaller, safer-reporting quadrant. Axes are within-sample percentiles so outliers share the same frame; a higher safety percentile means a lower Clery incidents-per-1,000 rate.

Sample of 12 campuses from the plot (sorted by enrollment). Source: U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey + IPEDS enrollment. Rate = on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students; lower is safer-reporting, not a personal-risk forecast.
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Erskine College fell from 1 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in 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 Erskine 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 Erskine College sits on price and outcomes
At $16,525, Erskine College's reported average net price is cheaper than 49% among 81 South Carolina colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,525.

- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $14,555 for families reporting under $30,000 against $18,942 above $110,000, a difference of $4,387. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $16,525 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six-year median earnings of $39,618 run about 2.4 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.
