You should receive several interviews from your list .Remove SUNY Upstate as they accept few non residents. You could add these schools:
Hofstra
Einstein
Jefferson

I would add EVMS, Ohio State, Loyola, and Rochester. Make sure your writing is Strong all round. #narrative

You should for sure apply to Drew/UCLA and Keck USC. You could also consider Dartmouth.

Some reaches you could consider: Duke, Icahn, and Case (HIGHLY RECOMMEND)
