<p>Given your file, Rutgers is your #1 safety, since you applied in-state and EA to it. </p>

<p>EAs:</p>

<p>UMD: Low match (OOS playing against you)
Princeton: Match (never a safety to anyone)
UVA: Low match (once again, OOS playing against you)</p>

<p>All schools listed as regular-admissions are matches since none of them are safeties to anyone.</p>

<p>princeton is never a match for anyone. are you crazy?</p>

<p>I knew Ivy League schools, as well as other top private schools, never were safeties for anyone, but never a match? That’s something new… </p>

<p>But, even under EA, Princeton is a high match with that file at best.</p>

<p>I would say everything is a match except for Princeton, Carneige b/c of CS, Columbia, and UPenn. Nevertheless you still have a shot at all of them.</p>
