Urgent Campus Information

Information will be shared here during emergencies for which San Diego State University has activated emergency communications.

Emergency Services

During emergencies, dial 9-1-1 or use any emergency blue light duress phone located throughout campus. If you are unable to call, text to 9-1-1 is available within San Diego County. Individuals should text if they are:

  • Deaf or hard of hearing, non-verbal or have difficulty speaking;
  • Experiencing a situation where it is unsafe to call 9-1-1 for help;
  • Or in a medical emergency and cannot speak on the phone.

To report a non-emergency, dial 619-594-1991 and select option '1' from the menu to speak with a police dispatcher. If you are unable to call the non-emergency line, you may email [email protected].

Sign up to receive SDSU Emergency Notifications

SDSU has established a notification system that is capable of sending text (also known as SMS) and e-mail messages in the event of a campus-wide emergency or health and safety concern. It is not intended to supplant any personal emergency contact information you may have provided to Human Resources. Students, faculty and staff automatically receive emergency notifications, and others can opt in to receive information from SDSU.
