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 SUM Bible College and Theological Seminary rose from 0 to 1. The increase shows up in Burglary (0 to 1).
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 SUM Bible College and Theological Seminary
Across 3 reporting years, the only Clery Act category with a recorded on-campus incident here is Burglary.
The remaining 10 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Fondling and Incest. 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 SUM Bible College and Theological Seminary sits on price and outcomes
At $21,680, SUM Bible College and Theological Seminary's reported average net price is cheaper than 54% among 492 California colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $20,161.

- California median

- six-year earnings to median debt

- reported income-bracket spread
This institution reports an unusual pattern: families under $30,000 record a HIGHER net price ($21,249) than those above $110,000 ($17,426). Fewer than 2% of institutions reporting both brackets show this shape. It can reflect small bracket samples or programme mix rather than aid policy, so treat it as a question to raise with the financial-aid office rather than a finding.
Median earnings six years after entry ($30,871) are less than 1.4 years 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.
