Hi,
I’m starting the college search and, while I have colleges that I would really like to get into (if you’re feeling generous, feel free to also chance me for Uchicago, and WashU in St. Louis), I’m trying to find safety schools, or schools that I would be a match for. The school that I’m looking at right now is NYU, so could I logically call that a safety school?
Also, if by looking at my stats you think of other good safety schools for me (I want to major in political science), please tell me!
