Reporting-period change
What changed in 2024
University of Oregon increased from 91 to 134 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.

Campus size vs reported safety rate
Among 29 OR 4-year peers in this comparison, University of Oregon is larger than 96% and safer-reporting than 21% - the larger, 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.

Enrollment scale
How campus size shapes the safety figures
With 24,404 enrolled students, University of Oregon is the 152nd largest of the 5,585 institutions in this dataset with a reported enrollment, ahead of 5,433 of them. Closest same-state same-level scored peers by enrollment: Portland State University (3.81/1k); Oregon State University (3.85/1k); Chemeketa Community College (1.85/1k); Mt Hood Community College (0.46/1k); Oregon Institute of Technology (0.57/1k); Southern Oregon University (3.91/1k); George Fox University (0.61/1k); Western Oregon University (5.10/1k). The score above normalizes 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students, so compare it with similarly sized campuses instead of treating a higher raw count as evidence that a campus is less safe (University of Delaware is the nearest similar-enrollment comparison on this profile).
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at University of Oregon rose from 91 to 134 (+47%). The increase shows up in Burglary (30 to 47), Motor Vehicle Theft (38 to 54) and Fondling (9 to 20). Falling over the same period: Arson (3 to 2), Rape (8 to 7) and Robbery (3 to 2).
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 Oregon
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 7 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft, Fondling, Rape, Aggravated Assault, Robbery and Arson.
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 University of Oregon sits on price and outcomes
At $22,182, University of Oregon's reported average net price is cheaper than 69% among 54 Oregon colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $16,732.

- average net price

- Oregon median
- 2.3×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $15,112
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $15,909, while those above $110,000 record $31,021 - roughly 1.9 times as much. A published average of $22,182 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Six-year median earnings of $46,084 run about 2.1 times the annual net price. The margin is real but narrow, so how many years of price a student actually pays matters a great deal here.
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.
