Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 32 MD 4-year peers in this comparison, St. John's College is larger than 16% and safer-reporting than 19% - the smaller, 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 St. John's College held level. The total is unchanged, but the mix behind it is not. Rising: Fondling (2 to 3). Falling over the same period: 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 St. John's College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 3 Clery Act categories here: Fondling, Rape and Burglary. Fondling 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 St. John's College sits on price and outcomes
At $45,597, St. John's College's reported average net price is cheaper than 97% among 67 Maryland colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,140.

- reported income-bracket spread
Price barely responds to income at this institution. Families under $30,000 report $42,528 and those above $110,000 report $45,828, a difference of just $3,300. Where the curve is this flat, need-based aid is doing little of the work and the sticker figure is close to what most families actually pay.
Median earnings six years after entry ($34,483) are less than one year of the reported net price. That is a thin margin, and it is the figure worth pressing the school on before enrolling.
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.
