How about Washington University in St. Louis? I know there are some important differences from Chicago - such as, Wash U has undergraduate business and engineering - but my sense is that historically anyway there has been considerable overlap in the applicant pools, both are moderate sized private schools in large midwestern cities, both have some prominent graduate programs, etc.

And not to say that Wash U is a safety school by any stretch of the imagination, but the admission rate is roughly double that at Chicago.
