[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Title says it - but to elaborate DD is in a social group where basically every student is expecting to get into a top 10-15 school. DD has solid credentials but is extremely worried she won't be able to get into a top 15. She is ok settling with a lesser school but doesn't wasnt to go to a school lower than rank 25. Michigan, Emory, USC seem to be her top safeties at the moment, does anyone have any other suggestions?[/quote] I think the state flagship is usually the best safety. [b]Many people will assume DD went to the state flagship because of money.[/b] If there's something wrong with the state flagship, then an out-of-state state flagship, like the University of Iowa or the University of Minnesota, that's great and fun but not fashionable.[/quote] If you are choosing a college based on what you believe other people’s perceptions are, you are doing it wrong.[/quote]
