Hello Jagmeet,
Even if you manage to get admit from the universities with this IELTS score, you might end up with a VISA rejection at the end as the minimum IELTS requirement for undergraduate would be 5.5 with no band less than 5. I would suggest you to retake IELTS and try to score well and then apply for the universities.
All the best.
