<p>I'm going to be a senior when school starts, and so far my college list is about done. The only problem is that I don't have enough safety schools. The only safety I have so far is Purdue, and I'm not even sure if I can consider it a safety, even though my GPA is close to its average and my SAT about 400 points higher. </p>
<p>What are some good safety schools that are cheap and easy to get into? I'm thinking about state schools but not something too lousy.</p>

<p>Make sure you’re WILLING to go to the ‘safety schools’. Many people just choose random ‘safety schools’ and end up not getting into any of their target/reach schools at all, for one reason or another. Now they’re stuck with ‘safety schools’ that they completely hate.</p>
<p>Treat your college search for ‘safeties’ just as you’d treat your ‘target’ or ‘reach’ schools.</p>
<p>What state do you live in. Many people choose their state schools as a safety. Mines is CUNY City College which is a NY state school. Also, Arizona State is very easy to get into (90% acceptance rate), its one of my safeties also. </p>
<p>Also, make sure you love your safety and its accredited.</p>

<p>Some fairly low safeties include Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, and Stanford. Just make sure that you’re happy at wherever you end up! :)</p>
