Safety Schools?

<p>I’ve sent out all of my applications to the schools I really like and want to attend (UT, NYU, USC, Northwestern, Mizzou, and Emerson College), but I’m worried that I may be disappointed in my financial aid from these schools. So, I thought I would apply to one where I know I can hit the merit aid jackpot and pay in-state tuition. I’m planning to major in something like advertising/ communication/journalism, and I was thinking schools like Tech, U Houston, UT Dallas, UNT, etc. Can anyone recommend some other schools where I could attend cheaply and still get a solid education with job opportunities?</p>

<p>Stats:
100.3 W GPA
34 ACT
Top 10% (9/97)
A few APs
NHS, etc.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>If you are willing to go to Oklahoma you might get some aid there. Or OSU gives really good aid as well</p>
