<p>that's not really a safety for anyone.</p>

4

<p>Tulane might be a good safety choice.
With your status you might get some merit money</p>

5

<p>A&M business school is another safety for uou</p>

6

<p>I really don't need merrit money. But is A and M better than tech?</p>

<p>Bentley college and Babson College,both of which might actually have better programs that some of the schools that you mentioned.Babson would be better for pure entrepreneurship and marketing, and, in my opinion, Bentley would be better for either finance or accounting. Both are a good combination of strong business offerings, top notch, up-to-date facilities ( especially Bentley's trading room) and strong liberal arts. Their only drawback is that they are small schools akin to a liberal arts school.</p>

<p>Trust me on this. Both schools are fabulous for business since that is their sole "business." (if you will pardon the pun)</p>

<p>I still think Tulane is a very nice school. It is a safety school you really like to attend. You should try to visit the schools you like to go.</p>

<p>I didn't see that ranking for A&M, I'll look more into it.</p>
