What is "admission"?

Admission refers to the process of being allowed entry into a school, college, university, or program after meeting specific requirements, such as completing an application, providing necessary documents, and possibly passing exams or interviews. It signifies that an applicant has been accepted into an institution and is granted the opportunity to participate in its academic or extracurricular activities. Admission often follows a review process in which the institution evaluates the qualifications of the applicant to ensure they meet the criteria for entry.
