New England College of Optometry

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at New England College of Optometry?

NECO students should use the college's published emergency procedures and reporting contacts for incidents at its Boston facilities. In an immediate emergency, call 911; for a nonemergency concern, the appropriate contact may depend on whether the student is at the academic building or a separate clinical site.

NECO's annual security report is the place to check its stated campus-security policies and federally reported crime statistics. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods, so they are not a complete measure of every risk a student might encounter. Students should also identify the college's Title IX reporting and support procedures and review the separate safety rules at any assigned clinical site.
