Do I Need to Add More Safeties?

No, indeed. Not a safety. (I did write OP should apply TO).
It’s one reachable academic reach that offers all 3 performance subjects without audition (and with a boost for geographic diversiy).
The plan B list should imho include academic reaches/matches/safeties all with good facilities, instructors, support, etc. - was just trying to include a meet need college with strong academics, performing arts offerings, not likely on Op’s radar. OP can cross out Davidson, no problem

I imagine @DylanD24 doesn’t want to think of the “what ifs” but… what’s their plan if they’re shut out from all MT programs?
In my opinion, attending the strongest, best-resourced college that offered the best financial aid package (NO LOANS) is a good way out.

@DylanD24: if you run the NPC on Muhlenberg, St Olaf, and Denison, are those within budget for your parents?

A safety must be affordable.

Another approach could be CUNYs - especially if you could qualify for Macaulay (not worth it without Macaulay+Housing). Or for better community and support, Fordham Lincoln (Theater as a minor is open to all and can be added to any major).
