Campus size vs reported safety rate

Among 27 AR 4-year peers in this comparison, Williams Baptist University is larger than 19% and safer-reporting than 69% - the smaller, 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.

What actually gets reported at Williams Baptist University

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 Williams Baptist University sits on price and outcomes

See Arkansas's cost ranking

At $15,745, Williams Baptist University's reported average net price is cheaper than 62% among 69 Arkansas colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $14,060.

reported income-bracket spread

Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $10,733, while those above $110,000 record $24,028 - roughly 2.2 times as much. A published average of $15,745 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.

Six-year median earnings of $38,067 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.
