The term "college admissions" refers to the process through which students apply and are accepted into a college or university. This process typically involves submitting an application, providing academic transcripts, standardized test scores, letters of recommendation, and often an essay or personal statement explaining why the student is a good fit for the institution. The admissions committee reviews these materials to determine if the applicant meets the school's criteria and would be a valuable addition to their campus community. Acceptance into college can be highly competitive, with many students applying for limited spots at top-tier institutions.
