Depending on how many you want to cut, I'd look at the following:

OHSU: Very late secondary (think September). They also interview a ton of people, so you may spend a lot of money to ultimately be rejected.

University of Washington: Take very, very few OOS students. I'd eliminate this one for sure.

Colorado: 82k/year OOS tuition. So ~100k/year cost of attendance. Enough said.

Loma Linda: Unless you are very religious, I would eliminate this one.

Tufts: Another very expensive school.

Cool, thanks a bunch for the help. I think that I will definitely cut a few of those that you mentioned. I am also wondering if you think that there are any schools that maybe I should substitute in for some listed? Thanks again.

IMO, 25 schools is plenty since you have a very good chance at your state school.
