Read this sentence from "Equal Justice Under Law': Thurgood Marshall."

For example, while Marshall earned high grades in college, the all-white law school of the University of Maryland refused to admit
him.
What is the meaning of the word admit as used in this sentence?

O to announce
Oto accept as true
O to confess
