About

The word "录取" is formed by combining two independent characters, each contributing a crucial part of the overall concept. The first character, "录" (lù), carries the core meaning of "to record" or "to register". The second character, "取" (qǔ), means "to take" or "to select". When joined, they create a new, sequential idea: the process of first selecting ("取") a candidate and then formally registering or recording ("录") that person into a roster, together conveying the complete action of "to admit" or "to enroll".
