Accepted [videorecording] / Universal Pictures ; Shady Acres Entertainment ; produced by Michael Bostick, Tom Shadyac ; story by Mark Perez ; screenplay, Adam Cooper & Bill Collage and Mark Perez ; directed by Steve Pink.
Bartleby Gaines is a fast-talking slacker who gets rejected by every college he applies to. He decides to invent a phony college to get his parents off his back. Unfortunately (or not), the website his best friend creates is too effective and hundreds of other rejects apply and are accepted. Instead of revealing the hoax, Gaines decides to forge ahead and let the students create their own curriculum, little suspecting that their school is obstructing the expansion plans of the nearby snobbish college.
