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

Villanova maintains a campus public-safety operation and publishes emergency and incident-reporting information. Students should learn how to contact public safety, receive university emergency alerts, and report a concern before they need those resources.

The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for its federally required Clery Act crime disclosures and descriptions of reporting procedures. Such statistics cover specified reportable incidents and locations, not every experience of risk on or near campus. Villanova also provides processes for reporting sexual misconduct and accessing support; students can review the relevant university policy to understand confidential resources, formal reports, and emergency options.
