<p>You have low scores, but you have URM status, so you get a bit of a boost.</p>

<p>In UCs, they can’t have race quotas, so I don’t think you will get into UCLA. I think UC Davis and SB are definitely a possibility. NYU is in reach too, just get your SAT scores up!!
Still apply to UCLA, you never know what will happen</p>

<p>I don’t know if URM status helps much at state schools like UCs. If it did, they’d have a lot more URMs attending…which they don’t. </p>

<p>What is your “UC GPA”…</p>

<p>It appears that UCLA is a long shot.</p>

<p>NYU won’t be affordable…they won’t give you decent aid.</p>
