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 Saint Anselm College rose from 4 to 7 (+75%). The increase shows up in Rape (3 to 6).

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 Saint Anselm College

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 3 Clery Act categories here: Rape, Fondling and Burglary. 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 Saint Anselm College sits on price and outcomes

reported income-bracket spread

Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $25,143 for families reporting under $30,000 against $37,268 above $110,000, a difference of $12,125. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $34,779 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.

Six-year median earnings of $63,347 run about 1.8 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.
