I have a friend who’s a junior and she wants to go to NYU, and I told her that’s her reach school because of how prestigious the school is, and she said it’s her “will be school”, yet she doesn’t want to take the SAT until her senior year. I’m trying to tell her that if she wants to go to a prestigious college she really has to be on top of things. Funny thing is, I told her about Pace University being a safety school and she didn’t know about the college. Personally, I’m applying to all the schools I know I’m likely to get into as I have to be realistic with this.

Missouri S&T is a great safety for engineering! Living in state makes it very cheap, but even out of state, it still isn’t that bad, especially with the decent amount of aid available. Only bad thing is that Rolla is in the middle of nowhere. Despite this, students still get great internships.

URI is a safety I’m considering because they just got huge engineering grants and their engineering buildings are so nice, as someone who would be hopeful for MIT and Northeastern, but mostly wouldn’t be able to go because it’s cost prohibitive.

THANK UUUU!! not sure if it's my personal bias but i felt like u talked a lot about schools that are good for stem/business, can u maybe do something focusing on colleges for those pursuing the humanities?

@joshmakesdrinksandjokes 5 лет назад

LIBERAL ARTS SCHOOLS for sure it's just that it's harder to find safety schools with focused pre-professional tracks and there's a lot more information out there for finding good engineering/business programs than there are for, say, history or english

@apurvachanda 5 лет назад

also, for mit/caltech hopefuls i think that rose-hulman institute of technology is a great safety! It's very stem-focused and i've heard great things about it :)

@cryovizard9461 Год назад

UMinn (I’m assuming twin cities) is a bit deceptive on the cost. Maybe it has changed, but I received a national merit scholarship that was $10K every year and the cost of attendance is around 52k. This means I’d have to pay $42k a year to go to a mediocre school. State schools aren’t always the way to go.

@joshuakennedy2362 5 лет назад

I was a Suffolk University student. It’s honor program is okay, not the best. I was in it. If you are a business student it is decent, but for CAS students it was useless. Most students use Suffolk as a stepping stone to transfer into BU or NEU. If you aren’t going to do one of those things, I do not recommend it. It’s in the city and living there Freshman Year is cool; housing is not offered for upperclassman unless you are an R.A. which means most students either struggle to find housing in the uber expensive Boston area or they move to East Boston, which kind of sucks. Buildings are quite spread out as well, and there aren’t many opportunities here. Classes move extremely slowly because many of the students aren’t very good (hence the 84%+ acceptance rate). Money is ok but the lowest it’ll go is like 15k-18k a year (including room/board). Thankfully I transferred out of Suffolk. If you want to transfer to BU or NEU like many other Suffolk students do, then go ahead. Otherwise, attend a different school!

Question. I am not sure if you mentioned (probably did) if this list of collages safety/reach, if they are from a certain area of the country or just all over. Because my dream school is MIT and since I live in central Florida Embrey Riddle isn't that far from me (Which I actually was considering a safety school for me) so I was wondering if you labeled it a safety school because it has a good reputation or because you personally knew about it. I ask this because I didn't think a lot of people know about Embrey Riddle. I don't know if you get what am saying, but Thank you for the video anyways!
