This happened to me last year. I was class of 2017 and i only applied to reach schools so I was rejected from all of them. You have a few options. You could apply to schools with rolling admissions. You could do community college for 2 years then transfer over (CA has a great CC to UC program). I looked into both of these and neither one seemed to fit. I was adamant about going to a school in a certain location and I wanted to start as a freshman. So, I decided to take a gap year. If you have the money, you can travel or do a program for your gap year, there are some amazing options. I didn’t have the money so I worked in a restaurant for my gap year. And it was fun and fulfilling and I learned skills that I probabpy never would have known. As of reapplying this year, I’ve gotten into 5 schools (none of the ones I originally wanted last year, but schools I’m excited about nonetheless) out of 9. If you really wanted to go to those specific schools, then you should consider doing community college for 2 years and applying as a transfer. If you work your ass off in CC, you should be able to get into your dream school.
