Relating to or serving the function of admission; having the quality of admitting or allowing entrance.
From Latin admittere plus -ory, a suffix meaning 'relating to' or 'serving to.' The -ory suffix comes from Latin -orius and creates adjectives describing functions or purposes, similar to -ive but with more emphasis on purpose.
Admissory is another rare relative in the admit family. While admissible means 'able to be admitted' and admissive means 'tending to admit,' admissory describes things whose PURPOSE is to admit—like an admissory process in a school.
