Is Ohio State a safety for me?

I’m currently working on my college apps, and I’m thinking of applying to either 2 or 3 schools: University of Kentucky (maybe), Ohio State, and University of Southern California. I visited Ohio State and absolutely loved it, so I think it’s very likely that I’ll go there (it’s a lot cheaper than USC, so even if I get into USC, I might choose tOSU). I have a 31 on my ACT (32 superscored), 3.59 UW and 4.30 W GPA at one of the top 10 high schools in the state (Illinois). I also have taken a lot of AP/honors classes and got a 5 on the AP Psych test, 5 on BC Calc, and 4 on AP English Lang. My extracurriculars are strong as well. Basically, I am definitely applying to Ohio State and USC, but I only want to apply to UK if I can’t consider tOSU a safety. Also, if I apply early action to Ohio State in the next couple weeks, when can I expect to hear back? If I would hear back well before the deadlines for other schools, then I wouldn’t have to apply to another safety now.
