<p>Like you said, you don’t meet the eligibility requirements. It is highly unlikely you’ll gain admission to any UC. </p>

<p>Don’t let that ruin your dream of coming West. </p>

<p>You don’t mention your intended major but, Sonoma, Monterey and Sacramento are 3 solid CSUs you could probably get into in N Cal. While you are at it, apply to a few privates like UOP and St Marys. </p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>GPA is low for most UC’s except Merced. CSU’s are your best bet.</p>
