It is a strange statement in meaning, not just in grammar. Could you put it into more context, please?

I mean to say if someone wants to get admission for his children so How could i differently present it.

Get your children admitted [recruited] in our school.

Thanks.

You are writing an imperative sentence (a command). Is that what you want? What is the context? Is the school advertising for students?

Sir,

Why can't I use'' admitted in'' instead of '' admitted to.''

Thankyou
