The Department of Public Safety and Security at Seton Hall University provides 24-hour security services throughout the campus and at our off-campus facilities. Our staff conducts security patrols on foot, in cars, and on bicycles and is responsible for monitoring our state-of-the-art burglar alarm and fire safety systems. We also provide access control to our residence halls from 12:00 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. daily and provide 24 hour on-campus escort services when requested. Seton Hall University Public Safety works closely with the

South Orange Police Department and we employ off-duty police officers to patrol our campus each evening. Our administrative staff provides an array of security services for the University community including event management, emergency management training and response, parking services, investigations and lost and found. The Department of Public Safety and Security also oversees Parking Services and The Campus ID Office.

Seton Hall Shuttle

The Seton Hall Shuttle operates on a fixed route seven days a week. It is a safe and convenient way for all Seton Hall University community members to travel in and around the Village of South Orange, as well as weekend trips to the Short Hills Mall and Target. The Shuttle is free for all Seton Hall community members.  It can be tracked online at setonhallshuttle.com  or on your mobile device by utilizing the TripShot application, which can be downloaded via the App Store or Google Play Store. Once downloaded, enter "Seton Hall” as the service name. You will be asked to log in with your Seton Hall credentials.  

SafeRide

In an effort to enhance the off-campus safety of our community members, the Department of Public Safety offers an important transportation alternative called SafeRide. This service operates during the Fall and Spring semesters from 5:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m., seven days per week. It provides free on-demand van service to and from locations within the immediate SafeRide Zone (which can be found at shu.edu/public-safety/safe-ride) that are not on the Seton Hall Shuttle route. Service to these locations from campus originates at the Public Safety building near the Ward Gate. Service to campus from these locations is obtained using the on-demand feature in the TripShot application, which can be downloaded via the App Store or Google Play Store. Once downloaded, enter "Seton Hall” as the service name. You will be asked to log in with your Seton Hall credentials.  If you cannot request TripShot, call the Public Safety dispatcher at (973) 761-7550.
