- 1 The student enrollment figures provided by the United States Department of Education are for the 2013 school year, the most recent available. The enrollment figures include full-time and part-time students.
- 2 The figures shown in this column for the offense of rape were reported using the revised Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) definition of rape. See Data Declaration for further explanation.
- 3 The figures shown in this column for the offense of rape were reported using the legacy UCR definition of rape. See Data Declaration for further explanation.
- 4 If a blank is presented in the arson column, it indicates that the FBI did not receive 12 complete months of arson data for that agency.
- 5 This agency began the year submitting rape data classified according to the legacy UCR definition. However, at some point during the calendar year, the agency modified its reporting methods and began classifying and submitting rape offenses according to the revised UCR definition of rape. See Data Declaration for further explanation.
- 6 Because of changes in the state/local agency's reporting practices, figures are not comparable to previous years' data.
- 7 Student enrollment figures were not available.
- NOTE: Caution should be exercised in making any intercampus comparisons or ranking schools because university/college crime statistics are affected by a variety of factors. These include demographic characteristics of the surrounding community, ratio of male to female students, number of on-campus residents, accessibility of the campus to outside visitors, size of enrollment, etc.
