I agree that UVA and UMich are slight reaches, based on sub-25% accept rates and OOS, even if stats align.

I can only speak to the CS side, as that’s what I’ve been researching - Maryland, Wisconsin, Purdue, Penn State are T30 CS schools with 45-60% acceptance rates and 1400s or lower SAT averages (your SAT concords to about 1540). CS majors may be a bit higher, but you’re still very competitive at all of them.

I don’t see many others that would be a better option than Rutgers. And at the price difference, even the above may not be better.
