Chances for some universities?

<p>So I really want to Major in Computer science and have a job in that field. I looked at a list of best computer science schools and wrote down ones where I think I have a chance with.</p>

<p>Keep in mind I'm in New York and most of these colleges are out of state. Also if you guys know any great computer science schools that I can get into that would be great!</p>

<p>Here are my stats</p>

<p>Low income immigrant. Caucasian male. </p>

<p>1970 SAT 730 Math 650 CR 580 WR
Took it again. Results are coming in soon. Expecting to break 2000. </p>

<p>Lacking ECs
Night Manager of a fast food place.
Teaching myself programming</p>

<p>3.1 GPA</p>

<p>Here are the schools</p>

<p>University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
University of Wisconsin Madison
University of Maryland
University of Massachusetts
Ohio state university
Rutgers New Brunswick
Stony Brook
THE UNIVERSITY of NORTH CAROLINA at CHAPEL HILL</p>

<p>Rutgers SAS: Low match/Match
UNC-CH: Reach
Stony Brook: Low match/Match
UMass Amherst: Low match/Match
Ohio State: High match
UMD: Reach
UIUC: Reach (assuming LAS; engineering is a high reach)
UWI: Reach</p>

<p>Does reach mean I shouldn’t even bother applying? And what does LAS mean?</p>
