What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Pennsylvania State University-Penn State New Kensington?

Penn State New Kensington students are covered by Penn State campus emergency procedures and reporting systems. Before classes begin, students should confirm how to receive emergency notifications and where to find the campus's current emergency contacts and reporting instructions.

Penn State publishes an annual security report under the federal Clery Act. It is the appropriate place to review the campus's reported crime statistics, policy statements and emergency procedures for the stated reporting years. Those statistics cover defined categories and locations; they are not a complete measure of every safety concern. Students can also review university procedures for reporting sexual misconduct and accessing support. Anyone needing a specific service, such as an escort or after-hours building access, should verify its current availability for New Kensington rather than assume that a service offered at another Penn State campus operates here.
