<p>I know UCLA and UCSD are high reaches, but UCI has been my dream school for a long time; if rejected, I'll probably settle for CPP, but I'm fine with the community college/transfer route as well. I appreciate anyone who took the time to read and chance this, thank you.</p>

<p>Because anything that has to do with Engineering is very competitive, your stats aren’t up to par for LA or SD. UCSB and UCI are more possible, and you can definitely get into the CSUs.</p>

<p>I would say probably not for UCLA and UCSD. UCSB and UCI are possibilities but even they might be reaches with your current GPA. You’re fine for the CSU’s.<br>

<p>UCLA: reach (engineering is very competitive tbh, overqualified people sometimes get rejected)
UCSD: lower reach than UCLA
UCSB: low reach/high match
UCI: high match
The thing about the UCs is that they really care about GPA and scores, sometimes even more than privates. That’s why it is also easier for people to know their chances for UCs than for privates. Best of luck.
Also can you chance me back when you get the chance?
