<p>I would think University Park would be a safety for you...? Check out Schreyer Honors College.</p>

<p>agree with linkinpark - except I would add that you would have a good "chance" at honors. Know a few kids with profiles as good or better than yours who didn't make it.
For UP in general, no problem, as long as you apply early</p>
