Buy the MSAR.
Filter for the 57 schools that consider internationals.
Eliminate the mission based schools.
Apply to the ones that matriculated at least 5.

I am not international student. I am a US citizen.

Did you go to Washu for undergrad? That's the only top 20 school I can think of from Missouri or did you go to school out of state?

You are a good candidate for most of the schools on your list.
You could consider swapping the lower yield ones (VA, Mayo) for Miami, Hofstra, USC, NW...
What is UYU?
