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 University of Maine at Presque Isle fell from 2 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in Fondling (1 to 0) and Rape (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 University of Maine at Presque Isle
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Aggravated Assault, Burglary, Fondling and Rape. Aggravated Assault accounts for most of them.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Incest, Motor Vehicle Theft and Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter. 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 University of Maine at Presque Isle sits on price and outcomes
At $7,035, University of Maine at Presque Isle's reported average net price is cheaper than 13% among 31 Maine colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,510.

- Maine median
- 2.1×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $3,824
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $5,934 for families reporting under $30,000 against $9,758 above $110,000, a difference of $3,824. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $7,035 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $33,793 - about 4.8 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.
