<p>I always feel bad calling it a "safety," like it has negative connotations. Because I love K and wouldn't mind attending at all, but I'm already in so... yeah.</p>

<p>Virginia Tech or James Madison University</p>
<p>kwu, I've seen quite a few 2250+ 4.0's get rejected from Georgetown, so I very much doubt anyone excluding National Intel Winners could consider it a 'low match'. </p>
<p>That being said, I agree about Fordham.</p>
<p>Weber State has a 100% acceptance rate.</p>
<p>Don't really have a safety school yet. My second, third, fourth, etc... choices are not really guaranteed admission.</p>
<p>University of Florida :D</p>
<p>btw anyone looking for a good safety school, take a gander at SUNY schools. Cheap and some of them are superb. I might redue this thread for something a bit different</p>
<p>My favorites are Cornell College in Iowa and Georgetown College in Kentucky.</p>
<p>UPitt and St. Louis University</p>
<p>Penn State, SUNY Binghamton, Rutgers</p>
<p>UMichigan (OOS) :)</p>
<p>Cornell College or Beloit, probably.</p>
<p>simpson98, I was referring to the College of Arts and Science, not the School of Foreign Service.</p>
<p>Solid graduates (top 25th percentile, 2100+ SAT) from certain high schools, i.e. the top boarding and Jesuit schools, have a distinct advantage when it comes to Georgetown admissions.</p>
<p>Suny Bing
loved that school</p>
<p>Probably Cornell</p>
<p>I like all of my safeties, but probably most are Alabama and Miami. If I don't get into my dream school(Notre Dame) or some other match schools like NYU, USC, I might just go to the safety that would be the cheapest for me.</p>
<p>I asked a similar question some time ago, specifically asking for safety schools for the 'typical C.C' kids...you know, the 3.9 uw GPA, 2200 SAT kids who are also strong in a couple of E.C's and have strong essays/recs. </p>
<p>Most of the names mentioned were from the midwest:</p>
<p>Univ of Michigan.
McCalester college.
Maybe Carleton, Grinnell, Kenyon, St. Olaf colleges.</p>
<p>Not exactly 'super-safe', nor particularly 'safe' financially, but certainly less competitive than the Ivies.</p>
<p>Centre College in Kentucky. Otherwise it would have been Miami-Oxford. </p>
<p>Already accepted at the University of Tennessee. But I want to go more than 10 minutes away from home for college.</p>
<p>princeton university</p>
<p>Macalester MIGHT be a safety for some. Kenyon, Grinnell, and Carleton are not. Especially Carleton... its acceptance rate is on par with some east coast LACs.</p>
<p>If anything they are matches.</p>
