Safety schools in astro/cosmology?
Posted: Wed Oct 16, 2013 9:04 am
I'm interested in studying cosmology, dark energy in particular--more theory than observation, but I wouldn't turn down an astronomy department that does supernovae or CMB research. Anyway, I've started to compile a list of schools, and I feel like my current list is weighted more towards reaches than safeties. Can anyone recommend some cosmology departments on the less-demanding side of the admissions scale?
For reference, I'm already considering applying to the following:
Reach
Chicago
Cornell
Michigan
Match
Pittsburgh
Case Western
Arizona State
UC Davis
JHU
Safety
