<p>Need some good safety schools. In-state Virginia.</p>
<p>UVA
William and Mary
Tech
James Madison</p>
<p>(These are the schools I am applying 2, I think they are all reaches, UVA maybe a reach/high match.)</p>
<p>Major Business/Accounting</p>
<p>In state? UVA is much more of a fit for a strong in-stater than a strong OOS. For an OOS student, UVA is no easier to get into than, say, MIT.</p>
<p>Give your class rank, APs, SATs, SATIIs, please. Also, repost in the chances forum.</p>
<p>GPA - Unweighted: 3.70
GPA - Weighted: 4.00
Class Rank: top 15%
Class Size: 120</p>
<p>SAT I Math: 700
SAT I Critical Reading: 750
SAT I Writing: 730
ACT: 32</p>
<p>In State</p>
<p>............</p>
<p>James Madison and VT are not reaches for you. Both are probably low matches, with Tech maybe being a safety.</p>
<p>i live in virginia too, and given your test scores you will definitely get into tech or jmu if you don't get into both. you have a great shot at uva; i don't know as much about william and mary's selection criteria so i can't say. mary washington would be another good safe school to add to your list too, and there's a number of other not very selective options. figure out what kind of environment you want</p>
<p>I would say JMU, VT and Mary Washington would be safeties if you kept your grades up. I got into all three schools this past year with a 3.9 GPA, aver. SAT score and 4 APs. </p>
<p>You probably also have a very good chance at UVA but I wouldn't consider it a safety school...I had several friends w/ similar stats to yours who were waitlisted or denied this year.</p>
<p>VTech and JMU are already safeties for you, with UVA being a high match and W&M just a match. I think you're pretty set with the schools on your list, my friend.</p>
