Capella University

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

Capella students should consider both online security and the procedures governing any required in-person activity. A primarily online university does not offer the same day-to-day campus setting or residential safety arrangements as a traditional college.

Students should use official university channels to report threats, harassment or sexual misconduct and review Capella's published emergency and misconduct policies for contacts and response procedures. Those attending a residency or clinical placement should also learn the safety and emergency rules of the actual host location. Anyone comparing reported campus crime figures should consult the relevant annual security report and its covered locations and reporting years; such figures are not a complete measure of personal safety.
