<p>I would say you will be offered admission for RD , but not a slam dunk. Make sure admissions sees your 1st semester grades. Good luck.</p>

<p>Also, you may to consider writing separate letters to both schools now letting them know how much you are interested in attending and are appreciative of the fact you are getting a second look which hopefully will end in your admission. Might want to include something in the letter specific from the school that interests you.</p>
