According to my calculations, your UW GPA is a 3.562. This being said, here’s my estimation of your chances:

UC Berkeley- Big Reach
UCLA- Reach
UC San Diego- Low Reach
UC Santa barbara- Match
CSULB- Match
CSU San Luis obispo- Don’t know enough about this schol
SFSU- Match
SJSU- No idea, sorry
U of Chicago- Big, big reach (you probably won’t make it in)
NYU- High Reach
USC- Reach
Brown- Big, big reach (you probably won’t make it in)

While colleges do like an upward trend, there is only so much that can do for you. While you have the advantage of being the first in your family to go to college, URM status, and low income status going for you, the SAT and GPA are what hurt your application.
Again, this is just my take. I would like to see what others think.
