[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC in a good student 3.9 and high 1500's SAT interested in engineering/science based major. Hearing about how this past year has been very unpredictable with admissions. We are having trouble deciding on "safety" schools. Some schools I would think would be safety (flagship state schools locally UMCP or UVA - the stats showed it may not be a sure thing! Any advise on selecting safety schools?[/quote] Are you in DC, MD, or VA? If you're in MD I'd say UMD is a decent safety. UVA is not a safety for anyone in the DMV, including VA. Don't forget Tech.[/quote] Agree with the PP. With those states, MD seems likely. At worst, your son would be offered spring admission in letters and sciences which still allows the option of taking courses in the fall. For out of state, I would think VaTech is an option as well. My son got in with lower stats, but with no merit money.[/quote]
