Well, the apps are in and complete (early OCT). When do schools begin notifications, safety vs target…?

Every school follows a different timetable, but pre-Thanksgiving is still early for applications in general. This won't change based on whether a school is your "safety" (and you shouldn't have "safety schools" in the mix anyway).

Thanks. By safety, I meant where I was above the 75th in GPA/LSAT, that I’d be willing to attend. Thought that maybe the replies would be quicker there.

It depends on the school, sometimes. My non-expert guess is that schools may wait longer to fill out their applicant pools because many schools offered too many seats last cycle due to the extraordinarily large applicant pool and generally higher LSAT/GPA numbers. That way schools can better figure out if they can make gains in average LSAT/GPA for ranking purposes.
