Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 37 GA 2-year peers in this comparison, Georgia State University-Perimeter College is larger than 100% and safer-reporting than 14% - the larger, higher-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.

Enrollment scale
How campus size shapes the safety figures
With 17,437 enrolled students, Georgia State University-Perimeter College is the 252nd largest of the 5,585 institutions in this dataset with a reported enrollment, ahead of 5,333 of them. Closest same-state same-level scored peers by enrollment: Central Georgia Technical College (0.17/1k); Gwinnett Technical College (0.18/1k); Chattahoochee Technical College (0.00/1k); Georgia Northwestern Technical College (0.00/1k); West Georgia Technical College (0.00/1k); Lanier Technical College (0.00/1k); Southern Crescent Technical College (0.16/1k); Southern Regional Technical College (0.93/1k). The score above normalizes 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students, so compare it with similarly sized campuses instead of treating a higher raw count as evidence that a campus is less safe (Rio Hondo College is the nearest similar-enrollment comparison on this profile).
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at Georgia State University-Perimeter College rose from 1 to 3 (+200%). The increase shows up in Fondling (0 to 1), Rape (0 to 1) and Statutory Rape (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: Robbery (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 Georgia State University-Perimeter College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 6 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Fondling, Motor Vehicle Theft, Rape, Robbery and Statutory Rape.
The remaining 5 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, 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 Georgia State University-Perimeter College sits on price and outcomes
At $11,453, Georgia State University-Perimeter College's reported average net price is cheaper than 27% among 124 Georgia colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,482.

- $6,405
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $10,380 for families reporting under $30,000 against $16,785 above $110,000, a difference of $6,405. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $11,453 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Median reported earnings six years after entry are $37,844, roughly 3.3 times a year of net price. That is a workable ratio, though it says nothing about how long the programme takes to finish. Just 22% complete within six years. A completion rate this low means the typical enrolled student leaves without the credential, and cost figures should be read in that light.
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.
