Well, I would certainly assume it will be. You have the luxury of having additional time to get the grades up <grin>.

Psst, let me give you a little hint just between you and me. Okay? In the second section of the application where it says "[t]his section is one of the most important areas." It is very important to take this very seriously because we put more weighting on applicants who have demonstrated that they really enjoy engineering by doing cool outside projects. So, go build and fly a rocket, build and understand how a trebuchet works (having a personal siege weapon is always cool), learn to program the GPU in your computer, or build a low-current Tesla coil. The list is almost endless. This will, of course, also look great on your college application(s).
