Yea cost is not an issue
UC GPA? https://rogerhub.com/gpa-calculator-uc/
Post capped weighted and fully weighted.
You have excellent test scores and GPA is within range for both USC and UCLA. Both will still be tough admits and best of luck.
Your UW GPA is a bit low for the UCs, and maybe even for USC (though they evaluate more holistically). What is your weighted GPA? That will determine the course rigor. Your test scores are really good, so that is a positive sign. Is that ALL the ECs you have done? Are you in any clubs at school (or do you have a leadership position in any) or have you won/been recognized in a competition or conference on a national or international scale? Your lack of very many ECs may set you back a bit. USC, UCLA, and UCB are all reaches for you (you would either need to have more ECs or a higher GPA to be competitive). But I do think you have a small chance of getting in. Maybe apply to some state schools as safeties in case. Good luck!
