<p>What can your parents afford to pay? Both those “safe” schools are prohibitively expensive for OOS students. What state are you in?</p>

<p>You might want to look at Case Western Reserve. It’s got a high sticker price but a lot of merit money for well-qualified students.</p>

<p>I am an international student so yes I know they are expensive, thats why I hope I can get into colleges that aren’t as expensive.</p>
