Stressing a little

My daughter completed high school overseas so even though she is a US citizen she goes in as an international student. That is all fine but not being in US we are getting little to no help with applications and even college choice. We do not know what is realistic choice for her from a ‘safety school’ perspective and I am just starting to worry she has set her safety school target too high. She has done the ACT and did really well (above 30) and by all accounts is a good student and will do well on her high school exams - above average but not top of the class. I know having a good ACT score is no guarantee of admission but she has her heart set on college in the US and would like her to get in somewhere she is happy with. She will easily get into University here with her grades but feel we are flying blind a little. I guess I am just having a little stressful moment and no one can really give me a definitive answer but I thank you for listening!!!
