Advice for future applicants: if you get good grades in the winter session, even though you update the fall grades during January, make sure you report the winter grades on TAP too, you have until the end of March to do this, this may change the decision from no to yes. If you get bad grades in the winter, dont update your academic history until the result comes out.

All major prereqs completed including recommended.

NOTE: I was rejected last year. I was missing a second semester of English (thought an English class from many years ago articulated, it did not. Plus over the past year since that rejection I took Materials Engineering, Circuits + Lab, as well as Cell Biology to fulfill BIOL1A which is the only class listed on my conditions of admission that I need a B in so they most definitely care about that pre-req for ChemE majors).
Hope that helps anyone else in the future!
