Which Schools Should I Apply To? Any Shot at Harvard?

When I apply to schools, I believe I should check their majors first.
Medgar Evers has a really low graduate rate after 6 years… I don’t think that is good at all, but if possible explain this in a better way to me.
I am aiming for a bachelor, masters, or possibly higher degree. I’m not decisive in my major yet, but I want to work in technology or biology, something similar to those would be nice.
I realize that the colleges I checked have “general education core curriculum required”. What does this mean?
Another question, is there really no way I’d get in any of NYU’s schools? Not even a slim chance? If I do have a chance, please explain.
Hows my chance at getting into Baruch College, Fortham university, or majority of the CUNY schools? I believe admission rates depend on grades. Are my grades low for their standards? I do realize my GPA is absurdly low, but it’s not exactly 2.5(possibly a bit higher such as 2.7). I’m a junior going to senior year this year. I heard I should send college applications by october, so I don’t think I’ll have time to make up the GPA with a extra senior semester… (Is sending in college application early really that advantangeous?)

EDIT: I might of used the wrong GPA scale.
Is this website good for GPA scale? http://www.collegeboard.com/html/academicTracker-howtoconvert.html
My grades really varied all semester. However I always got around 85%. Which means I actually had a GPA of 3?!
