Walsh University reported zero 2024 Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents in the score categories (0.00 per 1,000). Zero in those categories is not a safety proof, other Clery tables and unreported harm can still exist, and zero-report campuses are left unranked against each other.

Reporting-period change

What changed in 2024

-6 reported incidents

Walsh University decreased from 6 to 0 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.

Signature insight · size does not equal danger

Campus size vs reported safety rate

Among 37 OH 4-year peers in this comparison, Walsh University is larger than 56% and safer-reporting than 61% - the larger, safer-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 Walsh University fell from 6 to 0 (-100%). The decrease shows up in Burglary (4 to 0), Motor Vehicle Theft (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 Walsh University

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Burglary, Rape, Fondling and Motor Vehicle Theft.

The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, Incest 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 Walsh University sits on price and outcomes

See Ohio's cost ranking

At $20,493, Walsh University's reported average net price is cheaper than 57% among 228 Ohio colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $17,989.

reported income-bracket spread

Price barely responds to income at this institution. Families under $30,000 report $20,458 and those above $110,000 report $20,373, a difference of just $85. 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.

Six-year median earnings of $50,090 run about 2.4 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.
