Accepted, but D in English first semester?

<p>I e-mailed UCSC in January about the D grade I earned in English first semester of senior year. I told them that I would recover it, which I currently am through an online course, but I am afraid to agree to the Conditions of Admission now. The first page clearly states "If you have already earned a grade of D or F in your senior year (fall or spring), you have not met these conditions of admission." But why did I get accepted in the first place, especially when I told admissions in JANUARY?</p>

<p>They told me to fill out a form and send it to them. I just sent it to them today, so my mistake. I really want to accept admission but I am not sure if I should. Should I wait or go ahead? I know I am going to recover the grade but as of now the grade is still a D.</p>
