<p>Sorry but they all seem to be a reach with a GPA under 3. You can try a CC for 2 years then transfer. But apply just in case. Good Luck! </p>

<p>you require a minimum of 3 gpa to even apply to the UC system. if you really want to apply, you need to do it by exception or examination.</p>

<p>[University</a> of California - Admission requirements](<a href=“http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/freshman/requirements/index.html]University”>http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/freshman/requirements/index.html)</p>

<p>your list is extremely reachy for your stats. i’m not sure why you would take the sat only once (december is the very last session for this year’s admissions), but i suppose that is your decision. even if you managed to get a 2300 sat, your chances would still be low. it’s better to go the CC route at this point.</p>

<p>based on a realistic sat of ~1600-1700.</p>

<p>UC Davis - high reach
UC Santa Barbara - high reach
UC San Diego - high reach
UC Irvine - high reach
UC Santa Cruz - reach</p>

<p>Minimum GPA requirement for UCs is a 3.0, but it isn’t impossible !
I would consider applying to some CSUs, but that’s up to you !</p>
