Campus security
Personal safety is a concern for everyone coming to a new place, and especially for families of students. Despite being an urban campus, UCSF has a very low crime rate, in large part due to the safety consciousness promoted by the UCSF Police Department.
If you visit our campus, the UCSF Police Department has many security services and policies to ensure your safety. UCSF crime alerts are publically posted to promote awareness and to gather information from potential witnesses. Your awareness can help prevent future crimes.
If you are interested in having family members receive emergency notices, see Receive emergency notices by SMS or email.
