Personally, I’d drop some of the more expensive schools on your list including both Midwesterns and ATSU unless your parents can help with a large portion. Apply to schools that give you in-state tuition after a year.
 
Op is a florida resident so only has one chance at public IS tuition. The more expensive private schools on your list are good safety schools, of course aim to get in to the cheapest programs if you can. But your total profile looks good and you applied to enough schools, so you stand a very good chance this cycle.
