I think Jaune feels he is in a lose-lose situation. He can't quite Beacon because of his pride and family history, but he also feels he doesn't deserve to be their. This became a lose-lose-lose with the addition of Cardin's blackmail. Finding out that Ozpin knew about the transcripts would not only rid Cardin of his blackmail, but also change his opinion on his acceptance, making him feel more worthy of being there. With his confidence heightened he may feel that he can acctually succeed and start training even harder to do so, since he is no longer fighting a losing battle.
