The first question I always ask is what can your family afford? What is your home state? A safety has to be affordable.

Second, based upon another of your posts:

I have an 18 ACT …

2.9 / 2.8 GPA freshman year - Advance Science
2.9 / 3.0 GPA sophomore year - Advance Science
3.3 / 3.3 GPA Junior year - no advance classes

I’m not sure any of those are admission safeties. You’re well under the ACT 25%ile for OU and that is rated very important for admission. https://www.ohio.edu/instres/commondataset.pdf

W Mich is closer but still not there: http://wmich.edu/ir/reports/cds/cds/201400cds.pdf
Same with N Mich. https://www.nmu.edu/institutionalresearch/internal-sources
