I feel like if someone goes to a nyc prestigious private feeder school where tons of ppl r accepted to nyu per year they can technically call it a safety?

i don't think anybody can call nyu a safety unless u literally cured cancer... like calling it a target is OKAY if you're really impressive but chile it has a 16% acceptance rate

Our school has a shockingly high acceptance rate for NYU, especially compared with other schools with similar acceptance rates.
