Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
National University was unchanged from 0 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 CA 4-year peers in this comparison, National University is larger than 69% and safer-reporting than 97% - the larger, 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.

Enrollment scale
How campus size shapes the safety figures
With 22,115 enrolled students, National University is the 179th largest of the 5,585 institutions in this dataset with a reported enrollment, ahead of 5,406 of them. Closest same-state same-level scored peers by enrollment: San Francisco State University (3.41/1k); California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo (5.51/1k); California State University-Los Angeles (2.76/1k); Santa Monica College (0.47/1k); University of California-Santa Cruz (7.67/1k); California State University-Fresno (8.23/1k); San Diego Mesa College (0.36/1k); Stanford University (21.26/1k). 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 (University of the Cumberlands is the nearest similar-enrollment comparison on this profile).

- six-year earnings to median debt
Median reported earnings six years after entry are $64,331, roughly 2.8 times a year of net price. That is a workable ratio, though it says nothing about how long the programme takes to finish.
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.
