Campus Security

We are committed to a safe and secure campus facility for all students, employees, faculty, staff, and visitors both within our online education system and the physical buildings. All of our campuses and classrooms are located on the world wide web and in Charles Town, WV.

As required by the Clery Act, APUS publishes an annual security report containing certain university safety and security information and three years of relevant campus crime statistics (if any). The report is available at Clery-Act-Annual-Security-Report. Students may request a paper copy by emailing consumerinfo@apus.edu.
