Campus size vs reported safety rate

Among 29 OR 4-year peers in this comparison, Oregon Institute of Technology is larger than 82% and safer-reporting than 71% - 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.

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 Oregon Institute of Technology fell from 2 to 1 (-50%). The increase shows up in Fondling (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: Aggravated Assault (1 to 0) and 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 Oregon Institute of Technology

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 5 Clery Act categories here: Rape, Fondling, Aggravated Assault, Burglary and Motor Vehicle Theft.

The remaining 6 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Incest, Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter and 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 Oregon Institute of Technology sits on price and outcomes

See Oregon's cost ranking

At $15,706, Oregon Institute of Technology's reported average net price is cheaper than 46% among 54 Oregon colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,732.

reported income-bracket spread

Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $9,085, while those above $110,000 record $22,431 - roughly 2.5 times as much. A published average of $15,706 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.

Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $68,301 - about 4.3 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly.

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.
