Goodwin University reported zero 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents in the score categories (0.00 per 1,000). Zero in those categories is not a safety proof, other Clery tables and unreported harm can still exist, and zero-report campuses are left unranked against each other.

Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 27 CT 4-year peers in this comparison, Goodwin University is larger than 46% and safer-reporting than 81% - 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 Goodwin University fell from 1 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in Burglary (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 Goodwin University
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Fondling and Burglary. Fondling accounts for most of them.
The remaining 9 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Incest and Motor Vehicle Theft. 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 Goodwin University sits on price and outcomes
At $29,249, Goodwin University's reported average net price is cheaper than 63% among 49 Connecticut colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $21,634.

Price barely responds to income at this institution. Families under $30,000 report $28,205 and those above $110,000 report $30,550, a difference of just $2,345. Where the curve is this flat, need-based aid is doing little of the work and the sticker figure is close to what most families actually pay.
Median earnings six years after entry ($40,230) are less than 1.4 years of the reported net price. That is a thin margin, and it is the figure worth pressing the school on before enrolling.
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.
