NDSU Police and Safety — official campus help

If it is happening on NDSU ground and you need an officer, you want University Police, not a neighbor with a current approval.

Call these

Life-threatening emergency: 911. NDSU University Police and Safety publishes a 24/7 line at 701-231-8998 and a contact page at ndsu.edu/police_safety. Search NDSU Police to confirm. Text-a-Tip is published at 701-526-6006.

  • Safety escort: call 701-231-8998 and ask. NDSU describes escorts to campus facilities and adjacent locations.
  • Report crimes and public-safety incidents to the University Police communications center at that same number.
  • The Safety Office is a separate weekday office (published 701-231-7759) for non-dispatch safety programs.
  • Fargo Police still exist off campus. NDSU Police will involve them when that is the right city desk.

What NDSU Police is for

Law enforcement on campus, emergency response, escorts, and official reporting. That is a public agency. Help Me will not pretend to be on their radio.

What to use Help Me for instead

A jump in a public lot when you want a neighbor, not a police call. Directions. A study table. Official NDSU events in the app still link back to MyNDSU. Safety stays with the badge.

Questions people actually ask

Can Help Me send NDSU Police?

No. Call 911 or 701-231-8998.

Is the escort the same as a Help Me walk?

No. The escort is official campus safety. Help Me is a neighbor. Use the official one when you want an officer.

Help Me is a community app for adults in Fargo–Moorhead. It is not a K–12 student program, not a youth chat, and not campus police.
