<p>That is why folks come here, extra set of eyes to avoid the common oops.</p>
<p>Lol. Sorry mate ;).</p>
<p>Alright then.</p>
<p>It’s most probably going to be -
- Purdue
- Rochester Instt Tech
- Virginia Tech
- U Washington
- WPI/IIT/Mich Tech/Ohio State</p>
<p>So you have RIT as a safety above UW? Is that it?</p>
<p>Umm, the first 4 are in no particular order .. RIT and Purdue have easy apps .. that’s why they’re at the top :).</p>
<p>UWash has a very un-NYU like campus. It’s beautiful and green. No cars.</p>
<p>Penn State and UW-Seattle are not really safety schools.</p>
<p>While it’s true that “Purdue is fast and easy with a quick turn around”, their engineering program is selective. That is, you may be admitted to Purdue but not in engineering. The same is true for UIUC.</p>
<p>Btw, UW-Seattle will only admit you to pre-engineering. You will have to apply again to CSE during your sophomore year and it can be quite competitive.</p>
