'''''Accepted''''' is a film.
Bartleby Gaines (Justin Long) has a problem. His parents want him to go to college, and he has applied to every college he knows of -- but all of them have given him a polite "thanks, but no" letter in response. Bartleby is smart and innovative, two talents he has turned to such ventures as making fake IDs and pulling pranks, but which do not, sadly, [[Book Dumb|extend to his grades]]. His friends Rory, Glen, and Hands are in the same boat with him, but all for their own reasons. Hands, though accepted to numerous colleges, lost his football scholarship when he broke his leg and can no longer afford to attend the schools where he applied. Glen was not accepted anywhere [[Cloudcuckoolander|due to his score of "0" on the SAT's]]. Rory was the most academically competent of the group, and ''could'' have gotten into numerous prestigious universities, except [[Crippling Overspecialization|she had]] ''[[Crippling Overspecialization|only]]'' [[What an Idiot!|applied to Yale, which did not accept her]]. What can they do?▼

Well, if every college has rejected them, they make up their own, of course. With the help of Sherman, who has been accepted into the prestigious Harmon College, they make a fully-functional website for their fake school, and turn an [[Abandoned Hospital|abandoned mental hospital]] into a college building. They put forth Sherman's irascible uncle as the dean. Their parents are happy. Our heroes are happy.
Now they have a new problem: The "fake" website automatically sends an acceptance letter to any and all applicants -- and now they have hundreds of fellow rejects to deal with. But Bartleby has a plan. Bartleby always has a plan. Now he has to figure out what that plan is...
