While responsibility for the safety and security of the campus lies with the Department of Public Safety, each member of the campus community must accept responsibility for his or her own personal safety. The cooperation, involvement and perceived support of the campus community in an overall campus safety program are crucial to its success. The welfare of all who live, work or visit Delaware Valley University is of paramount importance to the Department of Public Safety.

Delaware Valley University is located partly in New Britain Borough and Doylestown Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The 571-acre campus is located approximately 30 miles Northwest of Philadelphia. The campus of Delaware Valley University is an open one and, as such, access to the grounds is generally not limited. There always exists the possibility of a criminal act occurring, despite the best efforts of the Department of Public Safety
