When someone is allowed to join a team, school, or club, it means they are chosen to be part of that group. They can now take part in activities with others in the group because they have permission or have passed the requirements needed to join.
People often say "I got in!" when they receive good news about being accepted, such as into a university or sports team. It's a happy way to share their success with friends and family.
