You're off to a good start, but Chase is not exactly the most friendly to new folks. They generally like to see a year worth of history, etc. If they don't approve the card and you don't have any other Chase cards, I would just let your cards age a bit and try again next year.
By then the impact of the inquiry should be gone from your score, your AAoA should be over a year, and it will address their original concern.
