College 72 Hour Booking Overview
College 72 Hour Booking Basics
College is a CDP right next to Fairbanks. It is home to the University of Alaska Fairbanks, or UAF. The campus sits in the center of the community. Because of this, the UAF Police Department handles a lot of calls in the area. Call (907) 786-1120 for the campus force. Email them at police@uaa.alaska.edu for non-urgent matters.
Off-campus, the Alaska State Troopers take over. The troopers work out of the Fairbanks Detachment. They cover most of the area outside UAF boundaries. If a crime crosses the campus line, the two forces can work the case together.
The Fairbanks North Star Borough does not run a jail or a police force. It does run the land office and some support services. The borough site holds links that help with record lookups.
The UAF Office of Rights, Compliance, and Accountability runs the records side for the university police. Use that page to ask for campus reports and Clery data.
How to Find 72 Hour Booking Records
The quickest way is CourtView Public Access. Type a name and press search. Cases from the College CDP file under Fairbanks in the system. You will see the case number, the charge, and the next hearing date.
The Alaska Court System search hub is also free. It offers a few different ways to look up a case.
For custody tracking, set up a VINE Link alert. You get a free text or email when the person you follow changes facility or is let go.
Note: UAF Police can make arrests on the campus under state authority, but the suspect is booked at the Fairbanks Correctional Center by state staff.
UAF Police Department Contacts
UAF runs its own sworn force. The department handles calls on campus, in the dorms, and in university buildings. Officers can also help the troopers on big cases off campus. The campus Clery report is posted each year and lists the full count of arrests and bookings.

Fairbanks Correctional Center
The Fairbanks Correctional Center is the go-to jail for any College 72 hour booking. It holds pretrial inmates and short-sentence inmates for the interior. Find the phone and mail rules on the Alaska DOC Facility Directory. The main state site is doc.alaska.gov.
For a name search, use the Alaska DOC offender search. It returns current custody, the facility name, and basic charge info. Pair it with a VINE alert for long-term tracking.
Cases may move from the Fairbanks Correctional Center to a larger state prison after the first hearings. The DOC offender search will reflect that move.
Court Records and Case Files
Once a prosecutor files a charge, the case opens at the Fairbanks Trial Court. CourtView shows the first hearing, the bail order, and every motion after that. The court covers all of the Fairbanks North Star Borough, which includes the College CDP.
Alaska's arrest rules sit in AS 12.25.030. Rules on release of criminal history are in AS 12.62.160. The state central repository is set up under AS 12.62.110.
Some files are sealed. Juvenile files are closed by law. The clerk can tell you which files are open.
Public Records Requests in College
The Alaska Public Records Act covers most state and local records. For state trooper reports, use the DPS FOIA Portal. For a full rap sheet, use the DPS Online Criminal History Portal. More rules are on the DPS Background Check home page.
For campus records, file a request with the UAF Office of Rights, Compliance, and Accountability. That office handles most university police records.
Victim updates come through the Alaska Office of Victims' Rights. Older case files live at the Alaska State Archives.
Note: Federal law on student records can limit what UAF Police release, so some campus reports come back in redacted form.
What Shows Up in a College Booking Record
A full sheet lists the name, date of birth, and home address of the person held. It shows the date and time of the arrest and the spot it took place. It names the charge, the officer, and the agency. It gives a case number and a booking number. It often shows the bail amount and the next court date.
- Name and DOB
- Arrest date and location
- Charges and statutes cited
- Arresting officer and force
- Booking and case number
- Bail and release terms

College in the Fairbanks North Star Borough

College 72 Hour Booking Timeline
The 72 hour booking clock in College starts at the moment of arrest. Under Alaska Statute AS 12.25.030, a peace officer can make a warrantless arrest for a felony, for any misdemeanor committed in the officer's presence, or for a domestic violence offense within 12 hours of the act. The law then requires the person to appear before a judge within 48 to 72 hours, not counting weekends and holidays.
A lot happens during that short window. The arrested person may be booked by the University of Alaska Fairbanks Police Department, the Alaska State Troopers Fairbanks Detachment, or transported to Fairbanks Correctional Center. The initial appearance gets scheduled at the Fairbanks Courthouse. Bail or bond conditions are reviewed. A public defender may be assigned. Formal charges can be filed or dropped. The sequence creates the College booking file.
The record subject has the right to see their own complete criminal history under AS 12.62.160. Third parties need a signed consent form or rely on the public reporting portion. The Alaska State Archives keeps older criminal justice files for research use.
