Texas loves is and is very unfriendly towards oos is why.
I think the rest of your list looks good, but do you have research experience? UCSF is very research heavy..they love it.
I don't have any research experience. Would that be a deal breaker?
 
2016 International/Canadian DS Admission Statistics

Check how many of you guys actually get into the schools you have selected.

For example 1/3 of the Texas schools don't take internationals.
Texas A and M took one dude and he's probably some prodigy from Nigeria. You aren't getting into Texas a and m so save your money.

Vcu took 2 people, both from their Kuwait program.

Ucsf took 1 person from South Korea.

Pick and choose wisely.

You think my chances are near 0 for Texas? i would love to study there, just seems they rarely accept an international. Thank you.

Lol Texas rarely accepts outside of Texas. I would've loved to study there too but didn't bother applying.

Thank you for the input. I figured since my stats are higher, I would give it a shot. But i took them off the list.
