Maybe Jaune showed some kind of selfless act that, while not demonstrating a lot of skill, showed he had the dedication and mindset to be a Hunter. Battle prowess can be worked on, but values and attitude are more difficult to correct: case in point, Cardin.

Also, don't forget that Ozpin and Glynda were watching everyone in the Emerald Forest, and could easy have intercepted if it appeared like one of the initiates was going to die.
