Hey guys,
I have recently applied to a few colleges but I feel my list is way too ambitious. Can someone please suggest a few good liberal arts colleges. I intend to study computer science with math in liberal arts. ( BA in computer science )

My stats:
Sat - 2070( Math - 800, CR - 590 , Writing - 680)
Subject tests: Math II - 800 , Physics - 680

I am an international student and my school follows a percentage grading system.
High school: 11th - 80% , 12th midterm - 82% and 12th predicted - 90%
Class rank - 3/110

Extracurriculars:
3 month internship at one of the largest shopping malls in my country in the marketing department.
150+ hours of community service
School band leader for the past 4 years
Head of music committee in school. Incharge of hosting inter-school events.
Self taught programming languages - Java and Python

I’m applying to the following colleges:

UIUC
UCLA
UC Berkeley
UC Irvine
UC San Diego
Texas at Austin
University of Southern California
Emory
Colgate university
NYU
Georgia tech
Maryland
University of Michigan Ann Arbor

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thank you!

Will you need financial aid?
(due to the presence of UC 's, UT, and NYU, I’ll assume you won’t)
Possibly, depending on the above…
Trinity Texas, Santa Clara, Connecticut College, Marist, St Olaf, Dickinson.

What region of the world are you from?

Overall yes this is a very ambitious list, with zero safety and only three matches.
Most of these universities aren’t especially holistic. They’ll mostly look at 2070*4.0. You’ll get into at least one or two provided you respected priority deadlines.
Only Colgate and Emory will look at your application more in depth.
Also, there’s a cap on how many internationals can be admitted to UCB and UCLA. You should be fine with UC Irvine.
If you’re OK attending UC Irvine, and possibly at best Colgate, or Emory, I think you’re OK. If you’d like o have a couple more acceptances, apply to more colleges or more holistic colleges.
