Northwest University students should use the university's published emergency procedures and reporting channels for campus safety concerns. The official annual security report is the appropriate source for reviewing reported campus crime statistics, safety policies, and procedures; any figures in it apply to specified locations and reporting years.
Prospective residents should check how residence-hall access works, how to report an urgent concern after hours, and how the university sends emergency notifications. Students should also locate the current Title IX reporting and support information for sexual misconduct. A security report is useful evidence, but reported incidents alone cannot provide a complete assessment of anyone's personal safety.
