University Police and Parking Services

The Northeastern State University Police Department is staffed by commissioned peace officers that meet the standards of the Oklahoma Council for Law Enforcement Education and Training (CLEET). 

The Northeastern State University Police officers have the power to arrest or issue citations to any person violating the law on University property and we cooperate with local police authorities in the exercise of their responsibilities. Policies and regulations have been developed for the safety and convenience of everyone on the NSU campuses.
