“Please help me rate my chances and what other schools should I apply in view of my financial circumstances?”

You should also apply to USC, which has scholarships for outstanding International students [Submit part 1 of your application by Oct 15, and have your complete application submitted before the Dec 1 deadline for scholarship eligibility, which will NOT preclude you from applying early elsewhere] It is one of the most ethnically diverse U’s in the US and is well known on the Pacific rim.
