What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Brigham Young University?

BYU uses campus security personnel and emergency-response procedures, including around-the-clock patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Reported services also include late-night transportation or escorts and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances.

Students should learn how to receive campus emergency notifications, where to report an immediate threat, and how to request an escort or other assistance before they need it. BYU's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and policy details. Those statistics cover specified incidents and locations over a reporting period; they cannot, by themselves, describe every risk a student may encounter. Sexual misconduct reporting and support options should be checked separately so students understand confidential resources and formal reporting channels.
