<p>I currently have seven schools on my list, of which five are safeties. Two of these safeties I don't really like, require CSS profiles, and one of them isn't on the Common App. </p>
<p>Assuming my other three safeties are affordable, would it be okay to drop my least favorite two?</p>
<p>Definitely. Don’t waste money applying to somewhere you dislike. Most people apply to 2 or 3 safeties anyway.</p>
<p>No point in applying to any school that you like less than the safeties that you like.</p>
<p>Also, if you cannot afford it, it cannot be a safety.</p>
<p>A safety is a school that you are WILLING to attend and not be miserable.</p>
