In conjunction with University Housing, the University Police Department provides a safety escort service to protect students, faculty and staff during the hours of darkness on campus.
Student Patrol Officers will provide a walking safety escort to any location on Main Campus.  Contracted security guards will provide a driving safety escort to outer areas of campus, including the Vet School, the Avent Ferry Complex and Centennial Campus.  Once a request for an escort has been made, the response time for an escort is approximately 5 minutes.  We do try to prioritize requests; individuals and those at remote locations may take priority over groups and those in buildings.

You can identify University Police officers by their uniform and/or their department identification card.  Police Officers wear the standard royal blue police department uniforms.  Student Patrol Officers wear a red t-shirt with “NCSU Student Patrol” printed on it.  Contracted security guards can be identified by their white and black uniforms designated by “Budd Security Group,” as well as the Budd Security Group Safety Escort vehicle.

To request an escort, call 919-515-3000 or use a blue light emergency phone found at many locations across campus.
