<p>I don't know much about Texas and Indiana as safeties..but i really need safeties because I have everything else and i'm not sure about which safeties to choose at all..</p>
<p>I want to major in Finance/Economics
GPA: UW 3.8 W 4.1
SAT was really bad but retaking
SAT II pending
Long list of ECs
Am international but not applying for scholarships/finan aid.</p>
<p>Would they be safeties for me? Can you offer an other safety schools that would match?</p>
<p>if ur school does a class ranking u better be in top 10% for texas. out of state kids really need to be in top 10 for texas or they will have a slim chance of getting in (it is hard enough for instaters outside of top 10%). indiana is a better safety for u. texas is really a better school all around especially in engineering... business texas is probably a little better but iu has excellent business as well. however the avg. student at texas will have better stats than those for a hoosier.</p>
<p>So judging from my stats profile...and being international...do you have any suggestions for a safety other than Indiana?</p>
<p>Hard to say until we know your SAT scores. Give us your best estimate so we have something to work on. In any case, Texas McCombs is not a safety for you as you are not in-state.</p>
<p>so a safety as an international would be...?
Well my SAT score was 1750 first time :S.
But on practice tests i got 2100 ...i screwed up because i didn't time myself...and on test day..i was rushed...
But this time i'm practicing with time, learning from my mistakes..so hopefully...i'll get a 2000 +</p>
<p>even with that old sat score, indiana is still most likely a safety for you. not so much for texas, though.</p>
<p>Indiana is that easyyy!!!!???? i heard their business school was pretty good...can't be THAT easy rite?</p>
<p>oh, never mind, i didnt see that you were applying for business. in that case, iu is not a safety, but its still probably a match.</p>
<p>o..k...then can we apply undecided and transfer?
Can you give me some other good safeties? That's kind of my problem...not being able to find one lolz</p>
<p>IU is still a safety, you just won't be a direct admit to Kelley School of Business...you will just transfer in as a junior (95% of business students do). However, a direct admit is possible if you up the SAT score to a 1280.</p>
<p>I would also like to recommend UArizona and Arizona State as other "safety" options. They both have top-25 business programs, and a really easy to get into.</p>
<p>Indiana and/or Texas-Austin as safeties? What nonsense!</p>
<p>How bout Pepperdine? Or is it a medium Tier school?</p>
