All these schools dont have a limit on community college credits

List seems fine other than Utennesee which sticks out. I would just plan on answering "Why Us?" very well if offered an interview. Look into their school mission.

Definitely focus on your IS school and prep for that interview. What did you say about manual dexterity?

Cricket batting and wicketkeeping which requires a lot of hand-eye coordination, worked the grill at Mcdonalds for 2 years, Loading gel, pipetting, and streaking microbes on agar plates

Regional is your best friend. I would include Oregon, even if you think the OOS works against you (not sure if OHSU is not kind to dual-enrollment). If you are a SED applicant, holistic review may help you for them.

I don't know about your fit with UConn or UB. Check the OOS stats and any affinity student groups that you are inclined to join. I would check any dental schools that also have dental hygiene programs... check if the admissions requirements for DMD/DDS comment about CC coursework.

have you at least met/called/zoom with admissions staff at UWSOD?

 

[oscarbobb]

why these schools?
Touro new york, Buffalo new york, University of Tennessee, Univeristy of Connecticut, Western University of health sciences California

There's not many schools that accept over 70 community college credits, These are safe schools. Main focus is UW

 

[oscarbobb]

have you at least met/called/zoom with admissions staff at UWSOD?

Nope? How could this be of benefit and what specifically would I talk about? I was in contact with them regarding my dual enrolment program but that's about it.
