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

Chapman operates a campus public safety service and reports round-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and a late-night transport or escort option. Residence hall entrances use electronic access controls.

Students should learn how Chapman sends emergency alerts, how to contact Public Safety, and where to report a concern. Sexual misconduct reports and requests for support follow processes distinct from a general security call; the university's Title IX and student-support resources explain those options. Chapman's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine federally reported campus crime statistics, with attention to the reporting years and locations covered. No single statistic can establish an individual student's level of safety.
