[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you wonder over to the BC thread, a bunch of people there are saying BC is a safety. Maybe take a look.[/quote] BC is often seen as a safety for students shooting for Notre Dame, Duke and Vanderbilt. But safeties vary so much depending on someone’s major and interests. A STEM kid is going to have a very different list of reaches and safeties than a liberal arts kid. [/quote] I don't think you understand fully what a safety is. BC is more like a target, and ND, duke and Vanderbilt are reaches. Places like Fairfield, PC, ad Fordham are safeties, if you will. Some might argue Villanova, but that is no guarantee by any means. BC had an acceptance rate of 13% this year. That is not a safety. [/quote]
