What Is Your Favorite Safety School?

<p>UC San Diego, American University, Chapman University</p>

<p>northeastern
or babson</p>

<p>fordham, cuny hunter, pace, cuny city college</p>

<p>i looooveeeee my safeties. </p>

<p>actually i only applied to safeties. NYU is my only match-reach school.</p>

<p>Rhodes College is the happy safety, for reasons of financial aid as well as admittance. For extra-safety, there are Florida State and U Central Florida. Both still great.</p>

<p>Syracuse anyone</p>

<p>harvard, yale, princeton...</p>

<p>university of maryland, gwu (more of a low match), and northeastern.</p>

<p>KU or K-state.
since im from kansas,
i can get in with straight C's.
But, if i dont get in to NYU, i would totally transfer.</p>

<p>University of San Francisco</p>

<p>My favorite safety was my undergrad college, Spelman College. Went for virtually nothing :) But practically all of the schools I applied to were safety schools. The only one that wasn't was Emory.</p>

<p>i love UMich as a safety, but it's not the best for OOS tuition.
my financial safety is IUB.</p>

<p>Tulane? I thought that was a Top College? </p>

<p>In my opinion...Large, public, party schools.
West Virginia or South Carolina.
There's always Alabama also.</p>

<p>I would say large, public party schools.
Such as...
West Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama.</p>

<p>There's always those Penn State satellite campuses also.</p>

<p>If you want a huge selection of safeties, take an SAT/PSAT, fill in your email address on the form, and check the box that says "release my information to colleges". I made the mistake of doing this (I thought it said <em>don't</em> release my info to colleges) and I was getting 20-30 emails a day. Granted, the vast majority of them were from schools that no one has even heard of, but I got no less than 49 emails from Tulane alone begging me to apply, I kid you not.</p>

<p>That is right.
I really wonder who goes to those schools.</p>

<p>Best Safeties (relatively easy to get into considering their academic quality and other features): Wisconsin, Kansas, Clark (Mass.), Alabama, Mississippi, Clemson, Colorado, Hawaii, Smith, Purdue, Indiana, Iowa, Vermont, Boston U., Pittsburgh, Case Western, U of New Mexico, Union College, Fordham, Marquette, Minnesota, DePaul, Michigan State, Arkansas, North Carolina State, Texas Tech, Hartwick, St. Olaf, Auburn, LSU.</p>

<p>I applied to three of thosep</p>

<p>I think this is all based on what kind of student you are.
The average national SAT is a 1010. The requirements for many of these schools would not accept a 1010. Ex: Clemson, has a standard of 1200. Auburn also has recently become more selective. Boston U also.</p>

<p>My favorite of mine is South Carolina.</p>

<p>Oklahoma Panhandle State University has a 100% acceptance rate. I'm just sayin'</p>

<p>Knox (10 char).</p>
