UCI and UCD should be considered Reach schools based on your stats but definitely apply since you never know how you your application will be reviewed. Anything below a 4.0 UC GPA will make it a tough admit.

You should UCR and UCSC instead. They still are somewhat of a Reach but a reasonable Reach.
