None of us know what the right graduate school for you is, and there is no such thing as a “safety” - being above the minimum GPA is meaningless. Graduate admissions are highly holistic and qualitative.

You need to talk with your professors about the right programs for your particular research interests. Look at journal articles in your field and find faculty who are doing interesting research.

No Ph.D program is worth attending if they don’t offer full funding.
