Admitted in the number ...

Hello,

Could you please advise if the sentence is correct?

"The candidates are admitted in the number corresponding to the enrollment limit".

I have doubts about "in the number". Is it correct to say that?


Thank you.

You're right. It's not natural. Try: The number of candidates admitted must not exceed the enrollment limit.
