Reporting-period change

What changed in 2024

+3 reported incidents

Shoreline Community College increased from 5 to 8 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.

See national reporting-year changes

What changed between 2023 and 2024

Reported on-campus incidents at Shoreline Community College rose from 5 to 8 (+60%). The increase shows up in Burglary (0 to 3), Rape (0 to 2) and Robbery (0 to 2). Falling over the same period: Motor Vehicle Theft (4 to 0) and Fondling (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 Shoreline Community College

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 7 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft, Robbery, Aggravated Assault, Rape, Arson and Fondling.

The remaining 4 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, Incest, Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter, Negligent Manslaughter and Statutory Rape. 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 Shoreline Community College sits on price and outcomes

See Washington's cost ranking

At $8,585, Shoreline Community College's reported average net price is cheaper than 18% among 83 Washington colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $14,091.

reported income-bracket spread

Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $7,390, while those above $110,000 record $16,328 - roughly 2.2 times as much. A published average of $8,585 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 $43,123 - about 5.0 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.
