Good school list so far, are you an URM? If not I would remove Howard, they pretty much exclusively accept URM applicants. I would also remove UNC, about 75% of the class is IS and OOS is fairly competitive. If you were to remove those 2 schools, that would leave you with 10. Look into some more schools within your range. Add LECOM it is a fairly cheap school. Other than that, look into other schools (they will be more expensive). I had same gpa but higher DAT (21) and applied to pretty much all the schools you applied too minus a couple and also applied to both MWU, both AT Stills, IU, and Western (giving me 15 total). Received interviews at IU, MWUAZ, MWUIL, Western, UNE, AT StillMO, and touro. Good luck!
