Safety Universities

 Now that I have discussed  the Reach and Realistic  college lists,  its time to look at the  third set , the so called "safety" options.
 Safety schools are those  in which a well prepared student has a very strong chance  of admission.
While there are many  colleges that will admit pretty much anyone,what  I aim  todo is identify  strong academic  programs where there  the odds of admission are still very good.

 It takes a  bit f effort to find these safety schools and they often depend on your interest. A university may be an excellent safety school for a liberal arts major but a terrible choice for an engineer and vice-versa.

 Some of the Universities I recommend as geerally safe choices are



  • Penn State University
  • Michigan State University
  • Syracuse University
  •  University of Pittsburgh
  • Franklin & Marshall College
  • Bucknell University
  • College of Wooster
 Ther sare a  coupe of STEM  institutions that  have strong engineering programs  but are not too difficult to get into
  •  Rochester Institute of Technology
  • Worcester  Polytechnic Institute

 The key is to find the right  "reach", "realistic" and s "safe" options for you.

 Now  lets return to looking at individual university applications
