Accepted is a 2006 American comedy film directed by Steve Pink and written by Adam Cooper, Bill Collage, and Mark Perez. The plot follows a group of high school graduates who create their own fake college after being rejected from the colleges to which they applied. The story takes place in Wickliffe and a fictitious college town called Harmon in Ohio. Filming took place in Los Angeles and Orange in California at Chapman University. This film was later remade in Bollywood as F.A.L.T.U starring Jackky Bhagnani.
When his father insists on meeting the dean, Bartleby hires Shermans peculiar uncle, Ben Lewis Lewis Black, a former Harmon College professor, to play that role, and he leases an abandoned psychiatric hospital adjacent to Harmon College and renovates it to look like a college campus. Their plan backfires when the website, which automatically accepts any applicant, enrolls hundreds of other rejected students. Bartleby realizes that these people have nowhere else to go, so he lets them believe that the school is real, a place where they will finally feel accepted, despite objections from his friends. After a visit to Harmon disenchants him with traditional college life, he has the students create their own curricula. Students write down what they want to learn on a giant whiteboard, ranging from the culinary arts, sculpting, meditations, to unusual courses such as psychokinesis, a subject one eccentric kid Jeremy Howard wishes to study.Bartleby creates a school newspaper the S.H.I.T. Rag, invents a mascot the S.H.I.T. Sandwiches, and throws themed parties. Meanwhile, the dean of Harmon College, Richard Van Horne Anthony Heald, makes plans to construct the Van Horne Gateway, a parklike verdant buffer zone adjacent to the college that the dean hopes will keep knowledge in and ignorance out. He dispatches Hoyt Ambrose Travis Van Winkle to free up the nearby properties, but when Bartleby refuses to relinquish the lease for the South Harmon property, Hoyt sets to work trying to reveal the college as a fake. The dispute turns personal, since Bartleby has been vying for the affections of Hoyts exgirlfriend, Monica Moreland Blake Lively. Hoyt exposes South Harmon as a fake institution through Sherman, who is attempting to join Hoyts fraternity as a legacy, but is constantly humiliated and abused by them. After debasing Sherman once more, the fraternity violently forces him to hand over all the files he has created for South Harmon. ........
