  • 1 This agency/state submits rape data classified according to the legacy Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) definition; therefore the rape offense and violent crime total, which rape is a part of, is not included in this table. See the data declaration for further explanation.
  • 2 The student enrollment figures provided by the United States Department of Education are for the 2017 school year, the most recent available. The enrollment figures include full-time and part-time students.
  • 3 The figures shown in this column for the offense of rape were reported using only the revised UCR definition of rape. See the data declaration for further explanation.
  • 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.
