When slacker Bartleby Gaines (Justin Long) realizes he’s been rejected from every college he applied to, he has his friend Sherman (Jonah Hill) create a website for a fake college in order to save face with his parents. Sherman’s fully functional website not only fools Bartleby’s parents, but also fools and sends acceptance letters to a whole incoming freshman class of students. Accepted, a comedy obviously inspired by the classic high school and college films Animal House, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Revenge of the Nerds has funny moments and even a message, but yet is only mediocre at best.
