<p>Also a Junior here, and I'm trying to make my list, and yet every college seems lame in comparison to Brown :) but here's my list:</p>

<ol>
<li>BROWN</li>
<li>....(this is my anticipation of completing my Brown app)</li>
<li>....(this is me waiting for my decision in Mid-December)</li>
<li>Amherst</li>
<li>Carleton College (Safety)</li>
<li>Sarah Lawrence College (Safety) </li>
</ol>

<p>I can't think of much any else.</p>

9

<p>Whoa... I feel dumb. </p>

<p>University of Minnesota (accepted)
Covenant College (accepted)
University of Florida
Florida State University
University of Colorado
and maybe... maybe... Colorado State... if by some weird chance I don't get into CU-Boulder.</p>

10

<p>uh...carleton generally can't be considered a safety.</p>

11

<p>carleton=not safety for anyone...moving on...</p>

<p>Oxford College of Emory
UMich
American
Occidental
Boston U
Fordham
Tulane
UMass Amherst</p>

12

<p>Yeah, but I went to the Carleton Liberal Arts Experience, which, I think in hindsight, was a program to encourage African-Americans to apply there. Like to be accepted to the program is harder than gettting into Carleton itself (17% versus 23%). They really wanted me to apply! That's why it's a safety for me.</p>

13

<p>2 Schools</p>

<p>Main: University of California Santa Barbara
Safety: University of California Santa Cruz</p>

<p>But I'll get into UCSB, it's not hard.</p>

14

<p>It's still not a safety. More like a match. Same goes for Sarah Lawrence.</p>

15

<p>Under what percentage is a "safety"? Because Sarah Lawrence is like 44%, which is pretty high.</p>

16

<p>^Greater than 50% acceptance, and usually greater than that, depending upon your stats. If you have great stats, Sarah Lawrence might be "safe match" but not pure "safety." No school with <50% acceptance can be considered completely safe.</p>

17

<p>Oh, then I'd say Hampshire College is a "safety" .</p>

18

<p>UPENNNNNNNNNNN...i'm feeling less optimistic day after day...
