Not Referred, Have Minimum Experience

I was updated today that I was "Not Referred" for the FSS (Construction Engineer) position. The feedback on USAJOBS/Monster stated that I did not meet the minimum experience requirements (3 years). However, I have two years of experience and I have a Masters in the correct field, and the vacancy announcement stated that it is acceptable to use a graduate degree as a year of experience. I emailed the email on the vacancy asking them to review my application again, as I have the correct experience. Has anyone had success doing this?
