Romance. Comedy Portia Nathan (Tina Fey), a Princeton admissions officer who is up for a major promotion takes a professional risk after she meets a college-bound alternative school kid who just might be the son she gave up years ago in a secret adoption.

	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"I'd see Tina Fey and Paul Rudd in anything, but this is pushing it. Admission is so slight that a breeze could flatten it (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"
		Todd McCarthy Variety	"A knowing but uneven comedy about the neuroticism of the college-admission process on both sides of the equation"
		Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"Laughs dismissed. (...) Everybody in 'Admission' is funny -Tina Fey, Paul Rudd, Lily Tomlin, Wallace Shawn- but they're not funny in 'Admission'".
