Just an aside, why do people start their posts with “white male”? Your gender and race are the least interesting things in your application, and tell little about where you might want to go to school (okay – if you were looking specifically about women’s colleges or asking about HBCUs, then I can see mentioning these traits). But otherwise, it is offputting (to me) that this is the first thing you think we need to know.

Okay…safeties. Your test scores are pretty good, GPA is okay. I could see Dickinson being a low match for you if you wanted CS, and don’t need engineering. You are on the higher end for RPI in terms of test scores, probably another low match. How about University of Delaware, Pitt, or Stevens in New Jersey?
