[quote=Anonymous]Maybe both families and counselors need a reality check, and "safety schools" are the new "target" schools in the application process. Times have changed since we went through this process. It's very naive to think that Michigan is a safety for anyone, especially if (a) you seem overqualified and they're not sure you would come if accepted, and (b) you're competing against 25 of your classmates. The schools that were safeties in our day (Tufts, Michigan, Wesleyan) are targets today and even places like Swarthmore are reaches for almost anyone.[/quote]
