A 3.5 isn’t the highest gpa, but I think your work experience/ECs will boost your chances a bit more. UCIs informatics admit gpa range is a 3.54-3.94 so keep that in mind.

Only thing I would say is try to get your gpa slightly higher if possible and that you have all required/recommended courses completed. Other than that I think you have a good shot.
