^^I can’t say your D’s chances at Northeastern without way more information, but please be aware that the university has a 29% acceptance rate and typically would only fall into “safety” range for a very strong academic student (not saying whether yours is or not because you only provided her GPA for the first two years of high school, and we don’t know the rigor of her course load in the context of her high school, her test scores, and all the other important considerations). Just pointing out that it’s a school that is not truly a safety for many students, but could be close to it for a tippy top student. Still, a 29% admit rate school is hard to think of as a sure bet for most students.
