In the academic world, “admissions” is the process by which the university/management school recruits new students. This process usually happens in three steps:

  • Application: candidates submit their application
  • Acceptance: after a selection process, applicants are notified of their acceptance or rejection
  • Enrollment: when the candidate accept their admission, they are considered as enrolled students
