Have you considered the possibility of applying more widely? There are lots of excellent liberal arts college on the east coast and in the midwest (they offer comp sci and the sciences - but only a few offer engineering) and some are very generous with their financial aid or even provide merit aid in order to increase the diversity of their student bodies. You would get smaller classes, faculty attention and mentoring, and a lot of supportive infrastructure. Many have beautiful campuses.
I’d avoid Georgia Tech, or any tech school for that matter, if you are not very strong in the STEM subjects and very committed to a tech degree. You are setting yourself up for a very frustrating time. And if you do decide that STEM is not the direction you want to go after all, your options are very limited. At a LAC, or even a mid-sized school, you can minor in comp sci and major in something else that feeds your soul (not to be under-estimated.)
There is nothing wrong with going to a safety school, but you may want more than one, just so you know you will have a choice come April. Check the Common Data Set, Section C for any school you are considering, to compare your stats to the admitted students. (Google it. For example: http://www.irp.gatech.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/CDS_2014-2015-061715-2.pdf. Note that 76% of the students got an ACT of 30 or higher.) Keep in mind that you want to be somewhere that you know you can be at least in the middle of the pack academically, even if you could potentially get in with stats that are below average.
