Among 37 NC 4-year peers in this comparison, Queens University of Charlotte is larger than 86% and safer-reporting than 31% - 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.

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 Queens University of Charlotte fell from 7 to 4 (-43%). The decrease shows up in Rape (3 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 Queens University of Charlotte
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 3 Clery Act categories here: Rape, Burglary and Fondling. Rape accounts for most of them.
The remaining 8 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 Queens University of Charlotte sits on price and outcomes
At $30,857, Queens University of Charlotte's reported average net price is cheaper than 97% among 145 North Carolina colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $14,086.

- average net price
- $14,086
- North Carolina median
- 1.9×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $17,634
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $22,792, while those above $110,000 record $40,426 - roughly 1.8 times as much. A published average of $30,857 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Six-year median earnings of $48,170 run about 1.6 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.
