Talk to your mom to see what she’d think about ND, just in case. 
You should apply widely to top schools.
Since you’re instate, definitely apply to UCLA, UCB, and another UC of your choice. One college among the Claremonts would also be a good idea.
Darmouth is an obvious one (although, if you do get in, you should read up about the influence of fraternities and drinking/drugs there.)
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for Stanford though. Don’t forget to update your thread on Dec.15!
I wouldn’t use Pepperdine as a safety unless you’re religious, evangelical, and observant. It’s a college for conservative Christian students who are serious about their faith and want to grow in Christ. That may be you, then great - but if not, I’m sure there are equally good universities that will be good “fits”.
If you tell us what you like about Stanford, we’ll do our best to find something that “matches” your priority criteria.
