<p>My only stipulations for them are for them to not be small, religious, and be northern. (aka if it snows a few times a winter its good) Should also have strong engineering and computer science programs.</p>
<p>As for credentials;</p>

<p>Disastrous 2.9-3.0 GPA</p>
<p>Most of my classes are AP/GT so weighted is 0.7 higher, and have tons of service learning with dedication in a single activity for many years. Course credits in engineering that I took at Johns Hopkins. Wish that school rigor also counted for something... because that is in excess.</p>
<p>Safety schools MUST be affordable. How much will your family pay each year?</p>
<p>Agree with mom2collegekids, the has to be affordable by your family standards in order for it to be a safety school. Also a safety school is one that you could easily get in. Alot of factors can affect your decision like location, price, does the school seem interesting enough ( it may be the only one you get in to) and etc.</p>
<p>Money isnt a problem, family income is over 250k… they say, “as long as you learn something, we pay for it.”</p>
<p>Yes Naomistar251, I know what a safety school is and what matters >.></p>
<p>Im looking more for a suggestion list I could research and look over…?</p>
<p>Kansas
Nebraska
Iowa State

Montana State</p>
<p>There are at least 2 dozen schools that show a 100% match with your GPA/SATs/majors of interest/no religious affiliation/and southern or western geography that come up with a CC college search. You might want to start there. Good luck.</p>
<p>A very safe school would be University of Wisconsin-Platteville. Around 7,000 students, known for both engineering and computer science programs, and a very nice campus. Short drive to a city of 70,000+. 2 ski resorts within a half hour if you’re interested since you like snow.</p>
<p>George Mason University and James Madison University in Virginia are both very good safety schools. George Mason in particular is pretty close to the Washington D.C. metropolitan area, and I think is oriented a little more towards science programs, but I’m not 100% on that. James Madison is a little more on the rural side. Both schools are very large, and are known for having a pretty pleasant environment.</p>
<p>If your GPA is 3.0 instead of 2.9, then you may even get an automatic scholarship at University of Alabama - Birmingham: <a href=“Error 404 | Not Found”>Error 404 | Not Found;
