Problem with TAG @UC. Need help ASAP!

So applied for TAG (Transfer Admission Guarantee) with UC Riverside for Business Adim. Recently I checked my TAG status and it stated that I do not meet one of the TAG requirement which is COSA 50. The problem is, my community college recently changed the course name of CBIS 6A to COSA 50 so when i applied for TAG I did not have an option to select COSA 50, instead I chose CBIS 6A which is the same course. I'm currently taking COSA 50 (formerly known as CBIS 6A) so on my transcript it is gonna say COSA 50. As a result, I called UCR's Transfer center and talked with a counselor and after looking into the matter, she said that I'm right and the courses are the same. But she said unfortunately UC's can't overturn a TAG decision....-__-.... And according to her I have a good standing and the TAG will not affect my chances of entering into UCR. WHAT TO DO NOW?
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you,

That is unfortunately true. Don't sweat it. I don't think I've ever heard of someone getting rejected from UC Riverside with a respectable GPA.

Just wait. I might make a note of this class change in the additional comments section on your general app. You should be fine.

That is incredibly unfair! Not cool.

The general app is the UC app. There's an "additional comments" section where you can make note of it.
