Looking for Safeties....

<p>I am trying to find some safety schools that offer good financial aid (or have relatively cheap tuition)…location doesn’t really matter…</p>

<p>Major: Marketing
GPA: 3.5-3.7 (Depends on this semester)</p>

<p>Any recommendations?</p>

<p>To answer your question, we would need to know your other stats, to know what a safety school is relative to your performance.</p>

<p>What other stats would you need? By the time I transfer I’ll have 60+ units(most colleges wont look at HS stats)…What’s left? EC’s? Well, I don’t have that many, just Treasurer of a club and member of AGS…</p>

<p>What college are you at now?</p>

<p>UPenn although I’m taking classes online (because of a home situation), and at my local community college.</p>

<p>Many private colleges, and a good number of public schools require a HS transcript, as well as test scores…</p>

<p>Ones that don’t require a HS transcript include:</p>

<p>UTexas
Syracuse
UMaryland
UDenver
UKansas
UOregon
Washington State
IU-Bloomington
Ohio State
Virginia Tech
American
UMiami
UGeorgia
UConnecticut</p>

</p>

<p>Im attending a CCC right now…</p>

<p>Well, good safeties would probably be lower UCs…they’ll be about as cheap as school is going to get, but I’m not sure about fin aid.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yeah…but they dont have my major…</p>

<p>ooh…hmm…good question then. :D</p>

<p>Bump!..</p>

<p>If you want to stay in the NW, Seattle University, and UoPortland should be fairly easy. Seattle and Portland both gave me some of the best financial aid offers I’ve ever had.</p>

<p>I would look into UNLV as well, the financial aid is ok for out of state transfers, covers about 60%, so you’ll need a loan and/or job to make up the difference the 1st year.</p>
