open admissions
All applicants accepted
Open admissions is a policy where an educational institution accepts all applicants who meet basic requirements—typically a high school diploma or equivalent—without competitive selection.
Community colleges commonly practice open admissions: The community college's open admissions policy means anyone can enroll.
The term sometimes appears as open enrollment, though that phrase has other meanings in insurance and employment contexts.
