<p>UCR can be an admission safety if you sign up for the GAP program during July, then include it in your regular UC application. Eligibility is a 3.9 HS GPA (presumably UC weighted) with at least 13 of 15 a-g courses complete (allowed exceptions: 4th year English and either visual or performing art or academic elective) and 23 ACT with writing.

<p>University of San Diego is a private; odds are pretty good there. But I think you mean UCSD.</p>

<p>3.7-3.9 weighted gpa has a 6% admit rate based just on gpa.
ACT of 25 @12 %. </p>

<p>But that’s based on isolated data points.</p>

Your ACT composite brings your chances down. Retake if possible and really work on your UC essays. Schools such as UCSB are more holistic in evaluating applications, so the essay may help your chances. I would add 2 safety schools to the list and cut UCLA/UCB/UCSD from the list. There are many great schools where you would have a better chance for acceptance, you just need to do more research. Plug your stats into the SuperMatch feature on this website which will help narrow down some choices.
Also calculate your UC/CSU GPA to get a better idea of your chances, see link: <a href=“Cal State Apply | CSU”>Cal State Apply | CSU;
Good Luck.</p>
