Can someone tell me if this is a good achievement:

I applied to Syracuse for journalism originally (Newhouse) but got waitlisted and then accepted into my second choice for English instead. I emailed admissions to appeal my decision to see if I could do dual enrollment in both English and journalism (College of Arts & Sciences and Newhouse) and I got accepted. Is this rare or common and is it worth it?
