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 Tennessee Wesleyan University fell from 2 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in Burglary (1 to 0) and Motor Vehicle Theft (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 Tennessee Wesleyan University
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Burglary and Motor Vehicle Theft.
The remaining 9 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 Tennessee Wesleyan University sits on price and outcomes
At $14,836, Tennessee Wesleyan University's reported average net price is cheaper than 47% among 124 Tennessee colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $15,269.

- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $11,609 for families reporting under $30,000 against $18,980 above $110,000, a difference of $7,371. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $14,836 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Median reported earnings six years after entry are $45,987, roughly 3.1 times a year of net price. That is a workable ratio, though it says nothing about how long the programme takes to finish.
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.
